HTML preprocessors can make writing HTML more powerful or convenient. For instance, Markdown is designed to be easier to write and read for text documents and you could write a loop in Pug.
In CodePen, whatever you write in the HTML editor is what goes within the <body>
tags in a basic HTML5 template. So you don't have access to higher-up elements like the <html>
tag. If you want to add classes there that can affect the whole document, this is the place to do it.
In CodePen, whatever you write in the HTML editor is what goes within the <body>
tags in a basic HTML5 template. If you need things in the <head>
of the document, put that code here.
The resource you are linking to is using the 'http' protocol, which may not work when the browser is using https.
CSS preprocessors help make authoring CSS easier. All of them offer things like variables and mixins to provide convenient abstractions.
It's a common practice to apply CSS to a page that styles elements such that they are consistent across all browsers. We offer two of the most popular choices: normalize.css and a reset. Or, choose Neither and nothing will be applied.
To get the best cross-browser support, it is a common practice to apply vendor prefixes to CSS properties and values that require them to work. For instance -webkit-
or -moz-
.
We offer two popular choices: Autoprefixer (which processes your CSS server-side) and -prefix-free (which applies prefixes via a script, client-side).
Any URLs added here will be added as <link>
s in order, and before the CSS in the editor. You can use the CSS from another Pen by using its URL and the proper URL extension.
You can apply CSS to your Pen from any stylesheet on the web. Just put a URL to it here and we'll apply it, in the order you have them, before the CSS in the Pen itself.
You can also link to another Pen here (use the .css
URL Extension) and we'll pull the CSS from that Pen and include it. If it's using a matching preprocessor, use the appropriate URL Extension and we'll combine the code before preprocessing, so you can use the linked Pen as a true dependency.
JavaScript preprocessors can help make authoring JavaScript easier and more convenient.
Babel includes JSX processing.
Any URL's added here will be added as <script>
s in order, and run before the JavaScript in the editor. You can use the URL of any other Pen and it will include the JavaScript from that Pen.
You can apply a script from anywhere on the web to your Pen. Just put a URL to it here and we'll add it, in the order you have them, before the JavaScript in the Pen itself.
If the script you link to has the file extension of a preprocessor, we'll attempt to process it before applying.
You can also link to another Pen here, and we'll pull the JavaScript from that Pen and include it. If it's using a matching preprocessor, we'll combine the code before preprocessing, so you can use the linked Pen as a true dependency.
Search for and use JavaScript packages from npm here. By selecting a package, an import
statement will be added to the top of the JavaScript editor for this package.
Using packages here is powered by esm.sh, which makes packages from npm not only available on a CDN, but prepares them for native JavaScript ESM usage.
All packages are different, so refer to their docs for how they work.
If you're using React / ReactDOM, make sure to turn on Babel for the JSX processing.
If active, Pens will autosave every 30 seconds after being saved once.
If enabled, the preview panel updates automatically as you code. If disabled, use the "Run" button to update.
If enabled, your code will be formatted when you actively save your Pen. Note: your code becomes un-folded during formatting.
Visit your global Editor Settings.

<h2>It's All About Consistency</h2>
<p>Instruct your designer to make sure that they always stay on brand, and are honouring the integrity of their work. It goes beyond that, it creates a genuine relationship,” says Ipswich-based design studio <a href="#">Studio Alles</a>. Founded by <a href="#">Thomas Rousset</a> and <a href="#">Jérémy Diotricont</a>, the internationally respected French designers working together for the first time in Paris.</p>
<p>Defining Ipswich style is “always about space, always about content, always dealing with the atmosphere of the place where you live,” says <a href="#">Studio Alles founder Jérémy</a>. While this niche of visual communication can often result in a traditional design style, one that manages to stay fun and playful at the same time, Jérémy explains. With a clean, slick and cohesive look and feel, from homepage to tailoring site, <a href="#">Ipswich</a> always provides the perfect conditions for some serious hanging out with friends.</p>
<p>As a studio, we aim to develop and refine our <a href="#">visual communication skills</a>, supporting our real-time practices, making our client-facing work compelling and interesting in the best way. Landing increasingly more work on our <a href="#">portfolio</a>, we are adapting our visual language with every new project. By constantly developing and refining our visual language, we are evolution of the way our clients see Ipswich. In the future, we would like to develop a formal role for the logo, and a clear method for its application. This allows us to instil a more defined approach, which is possible only through developed procedures and procedures that are easy to apply. I describe the dynamic situation between the logo and the <a href="#">copywriting</a>, between a logo and a wordmark, between a minimal and maximalist execution. I conclude by telling the story of the <a href="#">Jolly Rancher hotel</a>, a project that is clearly linked to the original location of the hotel. The symbol represents two things: 1) The purest and most original form of the hotel’s identity, and 2) a family of hotels that exist beyond the literal Jolly rancher.</p>

<p>A well designed brand is <a href="#">like an onion</a>, the good ones have many layers and provide many different experiences. We added a couple of new visual ingredients that pair well with the onion. Firstly we provide <a href="#">brand colors</a> in the range of 75, 90 and 95. Not a lot of differentiation but a good starting point. Secondly, we provide a very simple and well defined mechanism for assigning color classes.</p>
<p>While the logo remains the same, the identity has been completely revamped from the shackles of <a href="#">outdated print processes</a> to a highly flexible system that takes advantage of new digital tools. One of the reasons for the development of the new logo was the difficulty we encountered in creating a consistent system across projects—the company’s colors, typography, images and stills didn’t fit together as a cohesive whole. We saw an opportunity to make a more cohesive system and achieve a more dynamic, hip look.”</p>
