css

Tired of the stiff left border on my blog TOC, I swapped it for a Tailwind gradient spine that fades downward. Pure CSS utility, plus a note on the bg-gradient-to-* rename in v4.

Orange looked great in dark mode but washed out in light. A split accent, emerald-600 in light and mint in dark, clears the WCAG contrast bar in both.

Flat gray tag chips all carry equal weight. A 10% primary tint plus a hairline inset ring makes them feel alive and clickable again.

Sidebar headings at 11px uppercase dim gray were the hardest text to read. Switching to 13px bold normal-case plus icons raised contrast and fixed asymmetry.

Swapping a chip border for a background nudged the whole row by 1px. The fix: an inset ring, because box-shadow never affects layout.
