Welcome to issue #8!

🚨 New Content Alert

It's been a while! The blog has been on hiatus for the past few months while I took some much needed time off to recharge and also work on a few other projects.

Not to worry though, Building a Dynamic Background Effect was just published! This article shows how to create a subtle animation effect where background elements and icons are randomly positioned and move in the direction of a mouse cursor.

🚧 New Project Alert

One of the new projects I've been building is called Data Bloom and it's an easy way to generate mock data for tests, designs or anything else that requires large amounts of fake, but realistic data. It's still very much an MVP but there are a lot of features I plan to add! It would mean a lot if you checked it out, especially the advanced generator.
