### Accidental Hover
> [Read more about this pattern in Defensive CSS](https://defensivecss.dev/tip/hover-media/)
We use hover effects to provide an indication to the user that an element is
clickable or active. That is fine for devices that have a mouse or a trackpad.
However, for mobile browsing hover effects can get confusing.
Enable this rule in order to prevent unintentional hover effects on mobile
devices.
```json
{
"rules": {
"plugin/use-defensive-css": [true, { "accidental-hover": true }]
}
}
```
#### ✅ Passing Examples
```css
@media (hover: hover) {
.btn:hover {
color: black;
}
}
/* Will traverse nested media queries */
@media (hover: hover) {
@media (min-width: 1px) {
.btn:hover {
color: black;
}
}
}
/* Will traverse nested media queries */
@media (min-width: 1px) {
@media (hover: hover) {
@media (min-width: 100px) {
.btn:hover {
color: black;
}
}
}
}
```
#### ❌ Failing Examples
```css
.fail-btn:hover {
color: black;
}
@media (min-width: 1px) {
.fail-btn:hover {
color: black;
}
}
```
### Background Repeat
> [Read more about this pattern in Defensive CSS](https://defensivecss.dev/tip/bg-repeat/)
Oftentimes, when using a large image as a background, we tend to forget to
account for the case when the design is viewed on a large screen. That
background will repeat by default.
Enable this rule in order to prevent unintentional repeating background.
```json
{
"rules": {
"plugin/use-defensive-css": [true, { "background-repeat": true }]
}
}
```
#### ✅ Passing Examples
```css
div {
background: url('some-image.jpg') repeat black top center;
}
div {
background: url('some-image.jpg') black top center;
background-repeat: no-repeat;
}
```
#### ❌ Failing Examples
```css
div {
background: url('some-image.jpg') black top center;
}
div {
background-image: url('some-image.jpg');
}
```
### Custom Property Fallbacks
> [Read more about this pattern in Defensive CSS](https://defensivecss.dev/tip/css-variable-fallback/)
CSS variables are gaining more and more usage in web design. There is a method
that we can apply to use them in a way that doesnt break the experience, in
case the CSS variable value was empty for some reason.
Enable this rule in order to require fallbacks values for custom properties.
```json
{
"rules": {
"plugin/use-defensive-css": [true, { "custom-property-fallbacks": true }]
}
}
```
#### ✅ Passing Examples
```css
div {
color: var(--color-primary, #000);
}
```
#### ❌ Failing Examples
```css
div {
color: var(--color-primary);
}
```
| Option | Description |
| ------ | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| ignore | Pass an array of regular expressions and/or strings to ignore linting specific custom properties. |
```json
{
"rules": {
"plugin/use-defensive-css": [
true,
{ "custom-property-fallbacks": [true, { "ignore": [/hel-/, "theme-"] }] }
]
}
}
```
The `ignore` array can support regular expressions and strings. If a string is
provided, it will be translated into a RegExp like `new RegExp(string)` before
testing the custom property name.
#### ✅ Passing Examples
```css
div {
/* properties with theme- are ignored */
color: var(--theme-color-primary);
/* properties with hel- are ignored */
padding: var(--hel-spacing-200);
}
```
### Flex Wrapping
> [Read more about this pattern in Defensive CSS](https://defensivecss.dev/tip/flexbox-wrapping/)
CSS flexbox is one of the most useful CSS layout features nowadays. Its
tempting to add `display: flex` to a wrapper and have the child items ordered
next to each other. The thing is when there is not enough space, those child
items wont wrap into a new line by default. We need to either change that
behavior with `flex-wrap: wrap` or explicitly define `nowrap` on the container.
Enable this rule in order to require all flex rows to have a flex-wrap value.
```json
{
"rules": {
"plugin/use-defensive-css": [true, { "flex-wrapping": true }]
}
}
```
#### ✅ Passing Examples
```css
div {
display: flex;
flex-wrap: wrap;
}
div {
display: flex;
flex-wrap: nowrap;
}
div {
display: flex;
flex-direction: row-reverse;
flex-wrap: wrap-reverse;
}
div {
display: flex;
flex-flow: row wrap;
}
div {
display: flex;
flex-flow: row-reverse nowrap;
}
```
#### ❌ Failing Examples
```css
div {
display: flex;
}
div {
display: flex;
flex-direction: row;
}
div {
display: flex;
flex-flow: row;
}
```
### Scroll Chaining
> [Read more about this pattern in Defensive CSS](https://defensivecss.dev/tip/scroll-chain/)
Have you ever opened a modal and started scrolling, and then when you reach the
end and keep scrolling, the content underneath the modal (the body element) will
scroll? This is called scroll chaining.
Enable this rule in order to require all scrollable overflow properties to have
an overscroll-behavior value.
```json
{
"rules": {
"plugin/use-defensive-css": [true, { "scroll-chaining": true }]
}
}
```
#### ✅ Passing Examples
```css
div {
overflow-x: auto;
overscroll-behavior-x: contain;
}
div {
overflow: hidden scroll;
overscroll-behavior: contain;
}
div {
overflow: hidden; /* No overscroll-behavior is needed in the case of hidden */
}
div {
overflow-block: auto;
overscroll-behavior: none;
}
```
#### ❌ Failing Examples
```css
div {
overflow-x: auto;
}
div {
overflow: hidden scroll;
}
div {
overflow-block: auto;
}
```
### Vendor Prefix Grouping
> [Read more about this pattern in Defensive CSS](https://defensivecss.dev/tip/grouping-selectors/)
It's not recommended to group selectors that are meant to work with different
browsers. For example, styling an input's placeholder needs multiple selectors
per the browser. If we group the selectors, the entire rule will be invalid,
according to [w3c](https://www.w3.org/TR/selectors/#grouping).
Enable this rule in order to require all vendor-prefixed selectors to be split
into their own rules.
```json
{
"rules": {
"plugin/use-defensive-css": [true, { "vendor-prefix-grouping": true }]
}
}
```
#### ✅ Passing Examples
```css
input::-webkit-input-placeholder {
color: #222;
}
input::-moz-placeholder {
color: #222;
}
```
#### ❌ Failing Examples
```css
input::-webkit-input-placeholder,
input::-moz-placeholder {
color: #222;
}
```
