045: With Harry Roberts




ShopTalk show

Summary: This week we were joined by Harry Roberts of CSS Wizardy. Harry does a lot of writing about CSS architecture and writing good CSS. He has a fancy title at BSkyB and has worked on apps such as Faavorite. We talk about (roughly in order): #HOTDRAMA To use or not to use ID’s, the saga. (1) (2) (3) (4) Changes afoot for Ellis Labs / Expression Engine Q & A In search of the ah-ha moment for preprocessors. (For Harry, variables in inuit.css) What sort of planning process do you go through to prepare yourselves to write efficient code on large projects? How do CSS transforms interplay with normal CSS properties like height/width and top/left? Newly added styles have a way of just being append to end of stylesheet. Are there organizational principals to help with that? There are lots of new awesome workflow tools for Mac, what about Windows and Linux? Is there some kind of tool to automate making CSS IE compatible? Sponsors Environments for Humans – InControl 2013 in Orlando is going to be fantastic! Both Dave and Chris will be there.
