Modular Webdesign and OOCSS

- Dale Sande

 

HTML and CSS the last thing that you have to deal with in developing your apps?  Do you have a hard time communicating with your designers?  Looking to get agile with your UI?  Suffer from inconsistent UI and spaghetti code code all over the place?  When in doubt, you default to add more CSS?

Come hear Dale Sande, UI Engineer for Getty Images, speak about how using metalanguage technologies like SASS and .LESS to develop a UI Pattern Library has reduced the frustrations felt between designers and developers.  Tie that in with Modular Web Design concepts and OOCSS best practices and you have a recipe for WIN in the enterprise as well as small businesses.

 

 

HAML AND COMPASS: PURE, UNCUT AWESOME 

- Bradley Grzesiak

Why does everyone hate on XML yet tolerate—or even laud—its bastard sister HTML? And what about HTML's inbred cousin CSS? Why do we put up with this? Let's stop this madness, strip away the ugliness of HTML and CSS, stir in some awesome sauce, and bask in the result: HAML and Compass. Hampton's annual survey indicates that only 46% of Rubyists use HAML, and I'm sure many fewer use Compass. I'll dive into the What and Why of HAML and Compass, surely leaving you breathless and converted.
