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.

<p>A <b>flash of unstyled content</b> (<b>FOUC</b>, also <b>flash of unstyled text</b> or <b>FOUT</b>)
is an instance where a <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Web_page" title="Web page">web page</a> appears briefly with the browser's default styles prior to loading an external <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CSS_stylesheet" class="mw-redirect" title="CSS stylesheet">CSS stylesheet</a>, due to the <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Web_browser_engine" title="Web browser engine">web browser engine</a> rendering the page before all information is retrieved. The page corrects itself as soon as the style rules are loaded and applied; however, the shift may be distracting. Related problems include <b>flash of invisible text</b> (FOIT) and <b>flash of faux text</b> (FOFT).
</p>
<h2><span class="mw-headline" id="Technical_information">Technical information</span></h2>
<p>The issue was documented in an article named "Flash of Unstyled Content". At first, FOUC appeared to be a browser problem unique to <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Internet_Explorer" title="Internet Explorer">Internet Explorer</a> but later became apparent in other browsers and has since been described as "a <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Safari_(web_browser)" title="Safari (web browser)">Safari</a> epidemic".</p>
<p>FOUC is indifferent to changes in <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CSS" class="mw-redirect" title="CSS">CSS</a> or <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/HTML" title="HTML">HTML</a> versions. The problem originates from a set of priorities programmed into the browser. As the browser collects HTML and all the ancillary files referenced in the markup, the browser builds the <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Document_Object_Model" title="Document Object Model">Document Object Model</a> on-the-fly. The browser may choose to first display the text, which it can parse the quickest.</p>
<p>FOUC is more prevalent now that HTML pages are more apt to reference multiple style sheets. Web pages often include style references to media other than the browser screen, such as CSS rules for printers and mobile devices. Web pages may import layers of style files, and reference alternative style sheets. Online advertisements and other inserted offsite content, like videos and search engines, often dictate their own style rules within their code block. The cascading nature of CSS rules encourages some browsers to wait until all the style data is collected before applying it.</p>
<p>With the advent of <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/JavaScript_library" title="JavaScript library">JavaScript libraries</a> such as <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/JQuery" title="JQuery">jQuery</a> that can be employed to further define and apply the styling of a web page, FOUC has also become more prominent. In an attempt to avoid unstyled content, front-end developers may choose to hide all content until it is fully loaded, at which point a load event handler is triggered and the content appears.</p>
<p>To emulate an FOUC, developers can use browser add-ons that are capable of disabling a web page's CSS on-the-fly. <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Firebug_(software)" title="Firebug (software)">Firebug</a> is one such add-on.</p>
<p>While, by 2016, several different techniques had been developed to avoid undesired display behaviours, a change in rendering behaviour in <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Google_Chrome" title="Google Chrome">Google Chrome</a> version 50, whereby stylesheets injected by JavaScript are prevented from blocking page loading, as required by the <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/HTML5" title="HTML5">HTML5</a> specification, brought the situation to website creators' attentions again, particularly affecting users of <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Typekit" title="Typekit">Typekit</a>, a <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Web_typography" title="Web typography">web typography</a> product from <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Adobe_Systems" title="Adobe Systems">Adobe Systems</a>. Within 2 months, Adobe had changed the way in which their fonts were included into third-party websites in order to avoid the undesired rendering behaviour.</p>
