You can’t connect to a DB from within CSS, Right? Or can you?
Leveraging Houdini and SQL.js — which is SQLite compiled to JavaScript to serve as in-memory DB — you can. Using some Custom Properties, you can pass in queries to be executed.
.query-display {
background: paint(sql-css);
}
main {
--sql-query: SELECT * FROM genre;
--sql-database: url(...);
}Hahaha, just brilliant! 😅
