I remember Microsoft Front Page had a feature about doing buttons with image sprites and it spitted a ton of JS gibberish.
I don't think the example of the trophy in the article is a good use case this days, you could draw that trophy as a SVG and animate the flames with GSAP or something, or draw each flame frame as a <symbol> and animate that with CSS.

I love Josh's blog and writing. I have to wonder what place this kind of content has in an age where agents are writing all the CSS. It sort of feels like hand tool woodworking now - there are people that will still get a kick out of designing things themselves, but it's going to be much less common. Maybe it already was like that anyway.

LLM are actually really bad at writing CSS. CSS is 20% logic and 80% art. The machines just don't understand what is attractive and what is ugly. I hand write all of my CSS and I don't see that changing any time soon.
