Day 4: the min() function
posted on September 29., 2022
It’s time to get me up on speed with modern CSS. There’s so much new in CSS that I know too little about. To change that I’ve started #100DaysOfMoreOrLessModernCSS. Why more or less modern CSS? Because some topics will be about cutting-edge features, while other stuff has been around for quite a while already, but I just have little to no experience with it.
The min() function takes a comma separated list of expressions. The smallest value in the list will be selected.
div {
width: min(400px, 200px, 300px);
/* width = 200px */
}This example doesn’t make much sense because the value will always be 200px.min() shows its true power when you use relative units.
div {
width: min(100%, 800px);
}If the available space is below 800px, it matches 100%. If it's more than 800px, it matches 800px. This is basically a shorter version of this.
div {
width: 100%;
max-width: 800px;
