No, that's not entirely true. I know why they're working. What I
don't understand is what's different about this layout from the
previous one, other than the additional context wrapper outside the
overflow context, which doesn't make any sense to me; nothing I've
read suggests that's how that works.
The good news is that I have the independent scroll behavior that
I wanted. There are two bits of bad news. The first is that I don't
UNDERSTAND why this particular configuration, with an extra level of
nesting, made any difference.
The bigger problem is that I still don't see the scroll bars showing
up at all. And that annoys me. I should see them, right?
Moved the 'docs' section down and eliminated the folder. It wasn't
necessary. Built out the Section.html file, and started work on
the SASS. Having a hell of a time getting the side panels to
animate the way they do for adidoks, but I'm sure I'll figure it out
eventually.
More like, trying to get a more Django-traditional template for my
semantic layout, and going for a modern, Flex-based holy-grail layout
for the style.
It's not quite coming together. This isn't a skill I use often, so
I'm having a headache figuring out all of the nuances.
Improved the look of Definition Lists, but I think we're gonna
need a couple of flags on the macro to supply different base
classes, because I don't think I really like using the CODE style
with its yellow background, at least not the one in the default
template, and because I think we're gonna need a distinction between
a "tight" list (where the dt & dd share a line) and a standard
list (where they don't.)
Added a mono font for code
Added CSS for code
Added a better reset/normalize
Added my 1.25 scaled header text styling.
Added the home-page 'topic-card' styling.
Gonna go for the liquid scaling, but I think I'm gonna need a spreadsheet for
all the calculations I want to do. Given I have a min 360 and a max 960
width (is that even reasonable?) and I want a maximum text width of 30 ems, I
think I could write a spreadsheet that could calculate all of the margins and
clamp them.
It's annoying that I have to calc(clamp()) to keep Sass from fucking with me,
but at least it's do-able. Maybe as a separate CSS file?
