Dialog dilemmas and modal mischief: a deep dive into popovers and how to build them

A presentation at Coven of Wisdom - CSS Edition in in Eindhoven, Netherlands by Hidde de Vries

Our design systems commonly feature components that show on top of other content: tooltips, date pickers, menus and teaching UI, to name just a few. There are many ways to build them, and new features in the web platform are about to make this a whole lot easier. You might not even need JavaScript. In this talk, you’ll learn all about dialogs, including the new ‘popover’ attribute, “modality” and using the top layer.
