August 3, 2023

Friends,

As you certainly noticed, I’ve taken a much-needed, extended break from CSS Weekly, both from the newsletter and the YouTube channel—I’m back now, full of fresh ideas you’ll love.

I hope you’re doing great, that you managed to take some time off yourself, and that you’re ready for a ton of fantastic CSS-related content.
