Validating website HTML, CSS, and links from the command line

When working on a long running projects, it’s easy to lose track of HTML and CSS standard compliance.  Also, link rot is a common occurrence.  Gladly, there are command line tools that can be executed on a regular basis (think weekly or monthly cron jobs), that would check the site and report any issues with it.  Here is one of the ways.

Installation on Fedora:

yum install linkchecker
yum install python-tidy
yum install python-cssutils

Example command line:

linkchecker -t20 --check-html --check-css https://mamchenkov.net

Obviously, check the manual of linkchecker for more options.

Fitting and inflating text and videos with responsive web design

There are plenty of solutions around for scaling images. Text and videos on the other hand – not so much. Here are a few that are handy:

  • FitVids.js – a lightweight, easy-to-use jQuery plugin for fluid width video embeds.
  • FitText.js – a jQuery plugin for inflating web type.
  • Letterings.js – a jQuery plugin for radical web typography.
