Trying out CSS clamp on Blind Barber's Shopify Plus store
For years we've been wishing for a CSS min-font-size and max-font-size rule. Well it's finally here, in the form of CSS clamp();
How does it work? Let's say the element's font-size is set as clamp(1.8rem, 2.5vw, 2.8rem). This means that the font-size will be set at 1.8rem, until the computed value of 2.5vw becomes greater than that of 1.8rem. At this point, font-size will be set at 2.5vw, until 2.5vw's computed value becomes greater than that of 2.8rem. At this point, the font-size will be set at 2.8rem. clamp() allows you to set a minimum, ideal and maximum value.
clamp allows you to set a minimum, ideal and maximum value.
Before clamp();
.heading { &-l { font-size: 4.0625vw; line-height:1; letter-spacing: -.03em; @include media-breakpoint-up(xl){ font-size: 4.125vw; } @include media-breakpoint-down(sm){ font-size: 45px; } }
With clamp();
.heading { &-l { font-size: 4.0625vw; //flallback if clamp not supported. line-height:1; letter-spacing: -.01em; font-size: clamp(45px, 4.0625vw, 4.125vw); } }
