    They're so many dev channels on TH-cam. Your own is unique because it's straightforward, detailed, broken down, etc. I don't know how you do it but your explanation is clearer than the rest

    I love how your videos feel like reading a book on the topic, or an article, but while also being able to see a live demonstration, without all the fluff other videos tend to have. It really helps me streamline the information. I cannot wait for your next video.

    This is such a massive help! I like that you show real use cases where you would use which unit and the reason for it. I’ll definitely remember the 45ch-75ch rule of thumb.
    Keep these coming. Your production is top tier!

    • @JaLikon65
      @JaLikon65 ปีที่แล้ว

      Also, thank you for covering the specific USECASES for all of these Units!
      There are some other videos out there that covers these units. Some of them are even as concise as your video. But, the key thing they lack is that they don't explain when you would actually use these units! Adding that in makes this video just so much more useful to me. And in general, I REALLY like how in your video you explain the concepts -- but the you also provide examples or guidance on how you can effectively use those concepts. That's the big thing that sets these apart I think. Along with the great voice quality, animations, examples, etc :)
      Just 10/10 work my friend, I really appreciate it. You have a real gift for this stuff

    Dude, as someone who started webdeveloping 18 years ago (and been at it on and off), this channel is a treasure. Not following the space for longer periods of time had always made me feel like it's very hard to catch up with the latest developments. But it's videos like these (and your clear and concise explanations) that makes coming back to web development a LOT less daunting. Thanks so much!

    I thought I was understanding units okay but then I watched this video and my understanding grew a lot.
    Only thing I would add is to use the font size browser slider at the end of your rem section with the button to show how the padding interacts with the font. We can infer it grows and shrinks but I’m a visual learner

    Great video. I forget the name of the book (it's got to be 15+ years old now) but it had an example that used the absolute size of "small" on the html element. The benefit being it still allowed the user to customize their font-size (as you demonstrated) but gave you a rem equivalent to 10px. It made the math easier for me for when, for example, someone asked for 32px font I could just use 3.2rem instead.

      Yeah that’s a strange one. Length units like PX and EM on fonts can be absolute or relative, but it’s confusing to realize the similarly named units like small and smaller are actually different - font-size:small; is absolute while font-size:smaller is relative. 🤯

    Nice video. I did not know about the padding trick and the ch units. Thanks.
    ----------
    Like you said the reference pixel is a reference for a standard that works for us, humans, visually. It's important to note that you can calculate the actual size on the screen, at least the majority of times.
    ----------
    In your first example the screen is 1080p (1920x1080px) and is 27 inch (23.532 by 13.237 inches). Lets translates this to the superior unit of length and we get 59.771cm by 33.622 cm. Because you used a square we can pick either height or width lets pick height for this example:
    33.622cm / 1080px = 0.03113148148148148cm/px -> this is the size of each pixel in cm
    0.03113148148148148 x 96px = 2.98862cm -> this is the size of a square with 96px
    If you look at 2:10 you can see that the ruler is on the money 2.9cm.
    ----------
    Cheers and keep it up really nice videos.

    2:21 The screens are measured diagonally (i.e. 27'' diagonally, what changes sometimes is the aspect ratio), i.e. unless I'm not understanding what's going on, these examples are not proof, moreover the pixel size really changes, so computer screens and cell phone screens are usually more expensive than TV screens, for example, because the space is smaller and the manufacturing process, being more modern, is more expensive, to place the same amount of pixels in space dozens of times smaller

    One key takeaway from this video is at 10:58 (th-cam.com/video/fzZTvLmmTzM/w-d-xo.html)
    The use case for mixing em and rem is buttons.
    Font size in rem, padding in em.
    font-size: 1.5rem;
    padding: 1em;
    Why? When not used for font-size, em is the requested size relative to the font-size setting in the element.
    Another superb video. You really are a master of brevity and subject matter. That makes understanding sooo much easier.

  • @pavfrang
    @pavfrang หลายเดือนก่อน

    The real size in inches is always: pixels/resolution [dpi] , therefore it is a function of the resolution of the device. When you change the resolution of the device, the real size changes based on the formula above.
    (The almost empirical "expected viewing distance" may be the same for the same device/screen - but the size is clearly dependent on the resolution, which might change for the same device based on the graphics adapter settings, and therefore the definition that you present is not a strict one).
    In fact, this is how the resolution is defined primarily.
    Other than that - your presentation is almost perfect!

    The number of pixels in a square inch remains same. I think the size of a pixel differs from device to device but the pixels in a side and pixels in a square inch remain same. It's tricky but I think that's it.
