Who needs images, I have CSS. Options

Just thought I'd share my most recent Medium article series on building a calculator with HTML and CSS. I came across someone doing it on Twitter and thought I could do better... then I decided to do it different as well.

part 2:

Part 3 is a WIP, I'll post when I put it up. For part 3

for those of you past the read limit, the project directory is here:

https://cutcodedown.com/for_others/medium_a...es/htmlCSSCalc/

The calc.html in there is a live demo, there's a .rar of the whole project, and the directory is unlocked for easy access to the gooey bits and pieces.

It's fun that:


Can be done in nothing but HTML and CSS. The only image file that's used is the canvas background, and even that's a greyscale alpha transparency so colours can be set from the CSS.
