23. Use presets and variables as much
as you can.

DESIGN TOOLS
24. #wpbootcamp
SKETCH [MAC ONLY]
sketchapp.com
Sketch is built primarily for web and app designers
It takes a web-first approach to interface design
You can copy CSS values right out of the interface
Still doesn’t do everything Photoshop does.
35. #wpbootcamp
USING SASS
sass-lang.com
Sass lets you set variables and reuse them
Mixins let you automate style patterns
You can use regular CSS with SCSS (Sassy CSS)
Helps keep your code DRY (Don’t Repeat Yourself)

SASS TOOLKITS
bourbon.io
Choose a toolkit or framework that works for you
I use Bourbon + Bourbon Neat from thoughtbot
Others include: Compass, Bootstrap, Foundation, etc.
They take care of lots of presets for you

SASS & WORDPRESS
underscores.me
Most parent themes & frameworks use some sort of
CSS preprocessor (LESS or Sass)
My base theme is based on _s (Underscores)
_s already uses Sass, so it’s a matter of retrofitting &
customizing to my needs.
