While I rely on Python/Cairo for heavier algorithmic brand assets, the immediacy of CSS for interactive patterns is hard to beat. The grid capabilities here look very robust for quick prototyping.
If you inspect what's getting rendered, there's a sprite map expressed as a data URI that's doing most of the heavy lifting.
I don't understand how so few lines can produce so much different things.
And clicking on the background will just create a new random (?) background!
It seems that the aliases are doing a lot of work
Couldn't imagine ever wanting skip grid and flexbox for whatever has been concocted up for JS.
2. Without actual CSS JavaScript wouldn’t be of much use for drawing much of anything unless you were just going to use canvasses and forego the DOM entirely
