Different depth of nodes will use different colour allowing you to see the size of each element on the page, their margin and their padding. Now you can easily identify inconsistencies when working with the overall layout of elements…
* { background-color: rgba(255,0,0,.2);
outline: 1px solid rgba(255, 0, 0, 0.5);
}
* * { background-color: rgba(0,255,0,.2); }
* * * { background-color: rgba(0,0,255,.2); }
* * * * { background-color: rgba(255,0,255,.2); }
* * * * * { background-color: rgba(0,255,255,.2); }

One device and app feature I’ve come to appreciate is the ability to change between light and dark modes. If you’ve ever done late night coding or reading, you know how amazing a dark theme can be for preventing eye strain and the headaches that result. macOS recently implemented a native dark mode but that mode doesn’t convert websites to a dark interface, so you’re still getting a bright site regardless of native theme. Wouldn’t it be amazing if websites would also go dark or light based on user’s system preference?
This css works in most common browsers (including IE)
word-wrap: break-word; //ie specific overflow-wrap: break-word //other browsers
Internet Explorer has its own implementation for “overflow-wrap” -> “word-wrap”.
A readymade sass mixin:
/* Usage: .box { @include wordBreak; } */
@mixin wordBreak {
word-wrap: break-word; //ie specific
overflow-wrap: break-word //other browsers
}
