As builders and designers, all of us have that one factor on a web site that bugs us. A wrongly-sized typeface could also be a minor concern within the grand scheme of issues, however we nonetheless want we might alter it to fulfill our need for perfection.
Will we ever get to make the change? Usually, no. We’re merely left to take a seat and take into consideration what might’ve been. “If solely I’d tried to persuade them tougher”, you assume. “I might have jumped within the code and at last fastened that misaligned button”. Sadly, making minor tweaks to shine a web site’s aesthetic is commonly extra wishful considering than actuality.
Properly, I’d prefer to assume one cussed developer simply obtained their want granted. YouTube is changing its right-angled video participant with a model that has rounded corners.
Was this truly the work of a single decided developer desperately pushing to vary a small element of YouTube’s structure? Most likely not. However the change is so tiny it’s onerous to consider this might be something however an aesthetic alteration.
To its credit score, the curves do make the video participant look nicer. They align properly with the brand new curved thumbnails, giving the entire webpage a extra polished look. In case you at present can’t see the change but, it’ll be coming to your screens very shortly.
