18. Flexible Grids

19. <nav class="col8">

20. @include grid-column(2);

21. .hero-unit { @include grid-column(2); }
.promo-unit { @include grid-column(4); }

22. <section class="hero-unit">
<aside class="promo-unit">

23. Flexible Media

24. max-width: 100%

25. <img class="show-for-small"
src="small.jpg" />

26. Interchange

27. <img data-interchange="[small.jpg,
(default)], [small.jpg, (small)],

28. <noscript>
<img src="default.jpg">
</noscript>

29. Media Queries

30. @media

31. Every time you see 320px, 480px,
768px, 1024px used as breakpoint
values, a kitten gets its head bitten off
by an angel…or something like that.
– Brad Frost

32. device-in

33. content-out

34. Start with the small screen first,
then expand until it looks like shit.
Time for a breakpoint!
– Stephen Hay

36. @mixin mq($breakpoint, $query:
'min-width', $type: 'screen') {…}

37. @if $no-mqs {
@if $no-mqs >= $breakpoint
{ @content; }}

38. @else {
@media #{$type} and (#{$query}:
#{$breakpoint}) { @content; } }

39. $small: 20em;
$medium: 48em;
$large: 90em;

40. @include mq($large) {…}

41. usage

42. .hero-unit {
@include mq($small) {font-size: 1.2em;}
@include mq($large) {font-size: 1.5em;}
@include mq(30em) {font-size: 2em;} }
.promo-unit {
@include mq($small) {font-size: 1.5em;}
@include mq($large) {font-size: 2em;}}

43. @media and screen and (min-width: 20em) {
.hero-unit {font-size: 2em;}}
!
@media and screen and (min-width: 20em) {
.promo-unit {font-size: 1.5em;}}

44. @media and screen and (min-width: 20em) {
.hero-unit {font-size: 2em;}}
!
@media and screen and (min-width: 20em) {
.promo-unit {font-size: 1.5em;}}

45. “BUT… WHAT ABOUT
CODE BLOAT?”

46. …we hashed out whether there were
performance implications of combining
vs scattering Media Queries and came
to the conclusion that the difference,
while ugly, is minimal at worst,
essentially non-existent at best.
– Sam Richard

47. But…

48. Sass::MediaQueryCombiner

49. .hero-unit {
@include mq(20em) {font-size: 2em;}
@include mq(30em) {font-size: 2.5em;}}
.promo-unit {
@include mq(20em) {font-size: 1.5em;}
@include mq(50em) {font-size: 2em;}}

50. @media and screen and (min-width: 20em) {
.hero-unit {font-size: 2em;}
.promo-unit {font-size: 1.5em;}}

51. $ gem install
sass-media_query_combiner

52. The Catch

53. Ruby 1.9.2
Untested on large-scale
Rearranges CSS

54. If your CSS doesn’t look like
this, you’re doing it wrong.

55. “But… What about IE?”

56. This is why we can’t have nice things

57. $no-mqs: false default!
$old-ie: false default!

58. @mixin old-ie {
@if $old-ie { @content; }}

59. $no-mqs: 48em
$old-ie: true

60. .foobar {
@include old-ie { ... } }

61. Baking it Up

62. .promo-unit {
@include grid-column(4);
@include mq(20em) {font-size: 2em;}
@include mq(30em) {font-size: 2.5em;}
font-size: 1.3em;
margin-top: 1em;
float: left;}

82. Namespacing

83. the almighty ampersand

84. .btn {
&:hover {…}
}

85. .btn:hover {…}

86. .btn {
form & {…}
}

87. form .btn {…}

88. &- or &_

89. .btn
{
&-secondary {…}
&_secondary {…}
}

90. .btn-secondary {…}
.btn_secondary {…}

91. nesting

92. inception rule

93. < 3 levels deep

94. .btn
{
&-secondary
{
&-icon {…}
}
}

95. .btn-secondary {…}
.btn-secondary-icon {…}

96. @media

97. @mixin mq($breakpoint, $query:
'min-width', $type: 'screen') {…}

98. .promo-title {
@include mq(20em) {font-size: 2em;}
@include mq(30em) {font-size: 2.5em;}
@include mq(50em) {font-size: 3em;}
font-size: 1.3em;
margin-top: 1em;
float: left;
}

99. .btn {…}
.btn-large {…}
!
<div class=“btn btn-large”>

100. @extend
all the things!

101. .btn {…}
.btn-large {@extend .btn;}
!
<div class=“btn-large”>

102. %btn {…}
.btn-large {@extend %btn;}
!
<div class=“btn-large”>

103. don’t @extend
between modules

104. mina.so/sassy-starter

106. refactor
all the things!

108. refactor
all the things?

109. Baby steps

110. extract components
create variables
apply naming conventions
nest and @extend
