🛠️ New Interactive Article: Balancing Text In CSS I explored text balancing in CSS — what it is, the problems it solves, how it works, and included plenty of examples and use cases. Happy balancing! ⚖️ ishadeed.com/article/bala...

Just pushed an update that should make it better for mobile. Those are kind of changes that If I keep them before publishing the article, my OCD won't let me publish it till next year. 😅

This section still needs a look I think. Great article though!

Thanks! I think the browser not applying text balancing for some reasons. It works in other examples. Which browser/os is that?

Arc on iOS. That explanation makes sense to me though. The text isn't long enough/the container can't become wide enough for balancing to make sense basically?

Yep I think that's the issue, I will do more testing when I get some time and validate that. Thanks for the heads up!
