Beautiful article and working on solving an interesting in the weeds web dev problem align with some nice hand holding showing how to scale the solution to something very robust. All around a banger article

Great article!

Defining these kinds of mathematical constraints is exactly what makes UI engineering hard.

It’s also why it’s in your best interest to master CSS, which excels over other layout engines at providing sane but flexible defaults so you don’t have to do all of this math yourself.

Absolutely agree! CSS Grid and Flexbox have indeed simplified layout design by handling many of those complex calculations. Mastering CSS is a game changer for UI engineers.
