Making sense of BNF, ABNF, EBNF syntax differences and history

Claude.ai just helped me make a whole lot more sense of the absolute mess that is BNF-family syntaxes. 🤔

I just discovered ABNF is actually a standard, RFC 4234.

Why isn't this more widely used?

BNF in the wild drives me nuts - no two grammars are ever written in the same flavor of BNF, and often grammars are published as merely "BFN" neglecting to even specify which BNF variant was used.

Are there any other BNF variants that are properly standardized?

async scripts, defer scripts, module scripts: explainer, comparison, and gotchas

<script> async, defer, async defer, module, nomodule, src, inline - the cheat sheet

With the addition of ES modules, there's now no fewer than 24 ways to load your JS code: (inline|not inline) x (defer|no defer) x (async|no async) x (type=text/javascript | type=module | nomodule) -- and each of them is subtly different.

This document is a comparison of various ways the <script> tags in HTML are processed depending on the attributes set.

If you ever wondered when to use inline <script async type="module"> and when <script nomodule defer src="...">, you're in the good place!

Note that this article is about <script>s inserted in the HTML; the behavior of <script>s inserted at runtime is slightly different - see Deep dive into the murky waters of script loading by Jake Archibald (2013)

Approaches to modeling

In this short write-up, I will briefly summarize the types of modeling I have seen and attempted over the years, highlighting some of the advantages and drawbacks of each, ending with a conclusion explaining which one I prefer and why.

Replace a checkbox with a custom div for styling

jQuery plugin to replace checkboxes with <div> elements for styling.

This plugin makes no assumptions about class-names or the contents of the <div> element, it only implements the behavior - it returns the generated <div> elements for further operations with jQuery functions, so you can do for example:

$('input[type=checkbox]')
    .checkbox()            // returns set of <div> elements
    .addClass('checkbox')  // adds class="checkbox" to every <div> element

.html('✔') // inserts a unicode checkmark into every element
