My DrupalCon Europe 2020 session feedback
94% of attendees gave my session a 5 star (79%) or 4 star (15%) rating. Back in December I gave a talk on using Tailwind with Drupal...
Hi 👋, welcome to my personal site. It’s part blog, part portfolio, part place to try new things.
I work as a Principal Developer helping put together Drupal and other sorts of websites and apps for CTI Digital in Manchester. Outside work I'm interested in science, the environment, bouldering, bikes, and open source software.
Tweets from Twitter, blog posts from Medium, talks from YouTube and beyond, photos from Instagram, music from Spotify, and nice places (remember when we used to be able to go to nice places?) from Foursquare.
Talks I've given at conferences or other events. I'll link to slides or videos where they are available.
According to the Spotify API, I've been listening to a bit of pop punk (Something Corporate), indie emo (Roosevelt), jump up (Logistics), pop (Lana Del Rey) and electronica (Faithless) over the last few weeks (their genre names, not mine!)
You can click the cards above to play a little preview of the artist, courtesy of the Spotify API. I also use the Spotify API to get the tempo/BPM of the preview song, and I use this to influence the speed that a card bops at while its playing.
Press the pause icon or the esc key on your keyboard to stop the previews.
A randomised asortment of places I've liked on Foursquare at one point - it could be somewhere from a holiday, or it could be a random bar in Manchester that closed three years ago…
Tweets by me, @philw_.
Been down to check out the resurface on Barlow Moor Road. New surface is certainly smooth but the repainted murder strips are criminal: riding a safe distance from the kerb has even narrow road handlebars overlapping into the main lane.

Another day, another 20 minutes reloading pages, adjusting build scripts, checking caching settings to find out why a CSS change wasn’t being applied to a page, only to find out I still had some dev tools local overrides set up from the last time I worked on this project… 🤦♂️
What if I told you that you could create a pure CSS LQIP on-demand by writing a @tailwindcss class?
Say hello to Plaiceholder’s Tailwind JIT plugin 🚀
Coming soon…
Coming sooner if I get more http://Plaiceholder.co “Pro” members… pic.twitter.com/iM6YGM1od3
