Do you know how to make a dotted background with CSS?

Once I found the code but didn't understand the magic.

Here is a detailed explanation 👇
As a container, I'll use the body tag.

To make a dotted background we will use a combination of linear gradients.

Let's make something illustrated below.

The red background takes 20px.
Then goes green which takes 1-100%, in other words - the rest space.
Now, if we set background-size we can repeat the pattern which will look like on the image below.

The first value doesn't matter in this case since it's repeated horizontally.

But the second value is important - it's the space between the lines.

Today I turned 32.

Sharing with you some life lessons that I learned by this time.

I do not claim I necessary follow them.

It's not a planned thread. Just some sincere thoughts about life.

In no particular order. 👇
Your personal experience is more important than any advice.

This thing I've read in "The happiness trap". It is a book dedicated to the ACT therapy method.

Any advice is good. But nothing can replace your own experience.
People affected by survivorship bias too much

We see cool photos of people who drink smoothies on the beach and code startups.

The bias is that those who suffer depression, burnouts, anxiety, who has debts, and so on - they don't tell you that.
