Are you tired of waiting for new technology to be implemented on your favorite browsers? The team over at Evil Martians has a message for you: Don’t wait, let’s use the browser Contact Picker API now! This API is already available on Chrome for Android, with an experimental flag for iOS as well. As an iOS enthusiast, I couldn’t resist flipping the switch and trying it out. And guess what? It works like a charm! You can now easily select contacts from your device’s list and retrieve valuable information like names, emails, and phone numbers.
Imagine how many possibilities this API opens up for apps that rely on user contacts. Whether it’s for sharing or invitations, integrating the Contact Picker API can greatly enhance the user experience. Just take a look at Figma’s share modal for inspiration!
Feeling intrigued? Give the Evil Martians demo a spin and see for yourself how seamless and intuitive the Contact Picker API is. And the best part? It levels the playing field for non-Google apps by providing access to user contacts without the need for a separate contact list.
But that’s not all. Have you heard about the latest CSS property ‘text-wrap: pretty’? Forget about awkward line breaks and orphan words – ‘pretty’ has got you covered. It’s so useful that you might want to add it to your CSS reset stylesheet for a consistent typographic experience across your site.
On a more nostalgic note, grid-based projects have a special place in many developers’ hearts. Whether it’s a classic game implementation or a sleek design layout, grids have played a pivotal role in shaping our coding journey. And speaking of frameworks, do you have a favorite yet? Component Party is a one-stop shop for exploring the basics of various frameworks like React, Svelte, Vue, and more. It’s a handy reference for comparing methods and approaches across different platforms.
Looking ahead, macOS Sonoma promises to revolutionize the way we interact with web apps. With seamless integration and minimal requirements, installable web apps on macOS are set to blur the lines between web and native experiences. Apple’s bold move is sure to shake up the app ecosystem and pave the way for a new era of user-friendly web applications.
So why wait? Embrace the latest technologies, experiment with new APIs, and stay ahead of the curve in your coding journey. The future is here, and it’s waiting to be explored!
