Front End Development - Beyond Javascript (Robin Cannon)Future Insights
Session slides from Future Insights Live, Vegas 2015:
https://futureinsightslive.com/las-vegas-2015/
Front-End Development is more than just a Javascript layer. Just because everything is single page apps and you’ve got Bootstrap to back up your Backbone, Ember or Angular, doesn’t mean you’re truly developing a presentation layer. Something that’s a truly great interface between the user and the back end requires the three pillars of front end web; javascript sure, but HTML and CSS are vital too. In this talk Robin redefines what it means to be a front-end developer, and explores frameworks that will help us to build things that users love. He'll cover the de-emphasis of HTML and CSS versus Javascript skills in front end web development, and the benefits of a broader approach that's only going to increase in importance as the Javascript MVC model matures.
Is your site ready for the mobile web? Are you sure? Go ahead, check it on your phone, and your kid's phone, and a tablet, and some Android dealies, and a Bleakberry. And a TV or two. I'll wait.
That was an eye-opener, right?
Web design and front end development has never been more complex than it is now, and it's likely to get worse before it gets better. Should you design your site "Mobile First"? How about "Adaptive" or "Responsive"? What's the difference between those again? I want to talk about why you might want to choose these approaches to your project.
CSS is also not really up to the task of managing all this complexity. Sure, it *can* do it, but pure CSS strains almost to the breaking point under the pressure. So let's welcome Sass to the party. Sass is a CSS preprocessor that gives CSS authors the tools we've been aching for in creating and managing large and complex CSS projects. We'll cover a few of the Sass basics, but the real value here is in the more sophisticated tools that let you manage all the moving parts necessary in creating all this new-fangled wizardry.
We'll cover:
- Mobile First
- Adaptive Design
- Responsive Design
- Stand-alone mobile options
- Sass
- Mobile-focused tools
- Compass
- Survival Kit
- Susy

Dear (JS) Developers,
You now don’t have any excuses anymore: CSS brings custom properties to life, its own variables system, and they also have scope. No jealous! Let see together how to use them and some examples where JS and CSS variables are best friends forever.

The front-end tools landscape is growing at an exponential pace. Every week there are new plugins, new coding methodologies, new native apps, new JavaScript utilities, new jQuery plugins, new build tools, Grunt plugins, JavaScript libraries and so on. Many help us to solve problems and be more productive.
This talk will give you a quick overview of the kinds of things that get released every week, showing the variety of what’s available. But we shouldn’t be discouraged or overwhelmed by the amount we need to keep up with.Louis will cover some suggestions for dealing with the madness, and how developers today can benefit greatly from this influx of new stuff, even if they can’t keep up with it all.
OBJECTIVE
Demonstrate how to keep up with at least some of the pace, while benefiting from stuff we might not even use.
TARGET AUDIENCE
Front-end developers.
ASSUMED AUDIENCE KNOWLEDGE
Decent understanding of HTML, CSS, and JavaScript.
FIVE THINGS AUDIENCE MEMBERS WILL LEARN
The wide variety of JavaScript-based utilities available today.
The kinds of CSS and Sass tools that are at our disposal.
How to keep up with the influx of tools.
How to keep from being overwhelmed.
The possibilities to learn from tools that we don’t even use.

If you are a theme developer, using Sass or Syntactically Awesome Stylesheets is a time saving way to write your code and it is easy to learn once you are familiar with CSS. In this session, you will learn how to harness the power of variables, nesting, and mixins to take advantage of everything that SASS has to offer to write awesome code. In order to get the most from this session, you must have a good understanding of HTML and CSS.
I don't know about you, but vanilla CSS always leaves me wanting more. It's a fairly simple language, can do some pretty powerful things, but after a while.. well, it can become rather tedious to work with. Enter Sass: Syntactically Awesome Stylesheets. Sass is a CSS meta-language and precompiler that makes the prettification of your website a breeze by adding invaluable features of more traditional programming languages. In this session, we'll jump right in to the Sass workflow and cover all the key game changers - nesting, variables, mixins, inheritance, and directives. We'll also cover some of the gotchyas, tools and extensions, and tips for organization and coding standards.

Hi guys, today we will talk about… BORDERS!
The CSS border is something that you will most probably use almost every day, if you’re front-end developer, of course.
I’ve found a few useful (some more, some less, some just funny) tips and tricks that you can use in your project.
Introduction to XMLUI and Mirage Theming for DSpace 3Bram Luyten
ELAG 2013 Workshop on customizing the DSpace XMLUI Mirage interface.
The workshop first explores what can be changed in CSS, exploring the different functions of the style.css, base.css and reset.css files.
It then highlights where all of these files can be found and where you need to deploy your own customizations.
Digging down an additional layer, it is explained how XSL can be modified to remove or change entire blocks of functionality on a page.
The key learning here is that you can alter the representation of whatever comes in through the DSpace DRI using XSL. However, if you need to include additional data or other DSpace info, you have to make sure that it appears in the DRI first, before you can start transforming it with XSL.
Pre-processing for Fronteers by Viking Kristof HoubenMobile Vikings
On 22/6/2012 Viking Kristof Houben gave a presentation at 'Fronteers' about 'Pre-processing'.
The organization 'Fronteers' wants to professionalize the job of front-end web development. It strives for the recognition and support of Dutch speaking front-end web developers.
'Fronteers' unites about 450 front-end web developers in Belgium and The Netherlands.
Enjoy!

From Aaron Bushnell: You never know if you'll like something until you try it. That's why I recommend trying Sass for your CSS coding. Using the DRY method (Don't Repeat Yourself), Sass makes your coding easy, quick, and beautiful.
