Use JustREM
Let's get the obvious thing out of the way, this isn't super original. Onto the fun stuff!
The goal of this project was to create a site where I can easily convert a px value into a rem value. I found that other tools online that are meant to do this are slow, clunky, a pain to use, and they load 400 million ads.
🎉 Introducing JustREM!!!
JustREM is the tool I wanted to use;
- It calculates the
remas you type it - You can change what is appended to the value (which is something I needed to do while using a design system)
- You can change the base value
- Loads fast and works faster
The tech
The website is built using Nextjs with styled components using emotion. Finally, I used now to host the website. If you're interested in the source code, you can find that here. Fair warning, this was a "hack something quickly" project so don't be too critical of the code.
All in all, the combination of Next, emotion and now makes for a very quick tech stack for any "quick and dirty" projects. 11/10.
