A brief analysis and comparison of the CSS for Twitter's PWA vs Twitter's legacy desktop website. The difference is dramatic and I'll touch on some reasons why.

Legacy site *downloads* ~630 KB CSS per theme and writing direction.

6,769 rules
9,252 selectors
16.7k declarations
3,370 unique declarations
44 media queries
36 unique colors
50 unique background colors
46 unique font sizes
39 unique z-indices

PWA *incrementally generates* ~30 KB CSS that handles all themes and writing directions.

735 rules
740 selectors
757 declarations
730 unique declarations
0 media queries
11 unique colors
32 unique background colors
15 unique font sizes
7 unique z-indices

The legacy site's CSS is what happens when hundreds of people directly write CSS over many years. Specificity wars, redundancy, a house of cards that can't be fixed. The result is extremely inefficient and error-prone styling that punishes users and developers.

The PWA's CSS is generated on-demand by a JS framework that manages styles and outputs "atomic CSS". The framework can enforce strict constraints and perform optimisations, which is why the CSS is so much smaller and safer. Style conflicts and unbounded CSS growth are avoided.
๐Ÿ™‹๐Ÿพโ€โ™€๏ธ In 2011, I was hired into my first junior role in tech @Groupon

๐Ÿ‘ฉ๐Ÿพโ€๐Ÿ’ป By 2020, I was headhunted into a VP role in a global tech company @Brandwatch

๐Ÿค– I achieved this progression in less than a decade, without ANY coding skills

๐Ÿ”ฎ How did I do it?

*a thread*


๐Ÿค“ I established a track record of results.

๐Ÿ’ช๐Ÿพ No magic formula can replace hard work: do your job well & hit all the targets you are set.

๐Ÿ˜ฌ When you're struggling, ask for help so you can stay on track to get results, or collaboratively adjust targets.

๐ŸŽจ I stayed creative.

๐Ÿง™๐Ÿฟโ€โ™€๏ธ When challenges arose I was bold enough to try new solutions. Not everything worked, but constantly trying produced valuable innovations.

๐Ÿง  I was proactive in finding new, better ways to get the job done.

๐Ÿคฉ I was a self-promoter. I recorded my achievements & ensured they were mentioned in any performance / compensation reviews.

๐Ÿ˜Ž I put myself forward for any opportunities to gain recognition e.g. speaking opportunities or awards.

๐Ÿ‘€I actively worked on gaining visibility.

๐Ÿ™‚ I was myself. Some say you need to be ruthless to succeed. I don't buy it. I'm a nice person so I'm nice at work, too.

โค๏ธ I didn't fake it. I always acted on my values, and spoke up when something didn't feel right. I showed integrity.

๐Ÿค— I was a team player. To everyone.
