Finding a Better Way to CSS: Navigating Sass with CompassClaudina Sarahe
Knowing how to leverage Sass is ultimately what exposes its advantages over writing CSS unaided. This session is about common and useful Sass utilities. It focuses on getting the most from Sass through Compass as well as Sass properties and functions. We'll also cover core Compass imports, file organization best practices, and tips for approaching designs with Sass thinking.

OVERVIEW
Think CSS isn’t important? Or just for girls? Or an afterthought like accessibility or security? Spoiler alert: you’re wrong (about all of those)! CSS has become the gateway drug for most novices and designers-turned-programmer; with preprocessors like LESS and SASS making it easier and easier for web developers to get further down the rabbit hole. In this talk, Kacey will cover a brief history of CSS and where it stands today, the difference between and how to use preprocessors, and where we can likely expect CSS to go in the future. If you’ve ever wondered why UX developers love LESS/SASS, why preprocessors are essential in todays tech stack, then this talk is for you!

This presentation is targeted to everyone interested in an easier way of creating and updating CSS for your websites. It shows the great benefits of using SASS/SCSS for design implementation.
With the usage of SASS you gain the possibility to write CSS while using variables, nesting of styles and other flexible techniques like the powerful mixins, selector inheritance, basic operations (e.g. numbers, colors) or interpolation.
The written code will be compiled into standard CSS and for meeting the different needs the output format can be configured e.g. compressed which will create a minified CSS file.
For using SASS in your TYPO3 project right now the extension sassify is ready for editing and compiling SASS directly inside your TYPO3 installation.
Still there are some controversies about whether precompiling CSS is a good or a bad idea. Sometimes this leads to fights, struggles and name-calling. This talk is almost clean of it.
I'll show examples of "SASS" and "Compass"" from his day-to-day work and what you can do if you unleash the power of preprocessing.
Sass is an extension of CSS3 that adds power and elegance to the basic language. It allows you to use variables, nested rules, mixins, inline imports, and more, all with a fully CSS-compatible syntax. (With a little help from Ruby) This talk will cover an overview of what Sass is, how to get it, run it, and use it, and show some examples of its magic.
Code examples at: https://github.com/founddrama/vt-code-camp
Presentation for HTTQ in February 2013 by Ben Byrne on the CSS Preprocessor SASS, including getting it installed with ruby, sass and scss syntax, common Compass mixins, and sprites.
LESS is a flexible and dynamic way to develop CSS. A developer can quickly utilize CSS3 features, including browser specific implementations, with little effort. LESS is what everyone dreamed CSS could be. With such things as variables, mixins, nested rules and operations. He will show you how to use LESS to make your development process faster and more efficient.
What is Basic?
Basic was originally developed for client projects. Originally a stripped down version of the ZEN theme, basic has now become its own concept of a theme starter. Basic boasts a clean HTML structure with extensible CSS classes and ID's for unlimited theming possibilities as well as a top-down load order for improved SEO.
Basic's goal is to provide themers the building blocks needed to get their designs up and running quickly and simply.
What is SASS?
Sass is a meta-language on top of CSS that’s used to describe the style of a document cleanly and structurally, with more power than flat CSS allows. Sass both provides a simpler, more elegant syntax for CSS and implements various features that are useful for creating manageable stylesheets.
What will I Learn?
We will guide you through using Basic with SASS and Compass to kick-start your next Drupal theming project and show you how easy it is to get started. We will also cover the syntax and file structure of using SASS and how to get your development environment up

Bringing sexy back to CSS: SASS/SCSS, LESS and CompassClaudina Sarahe
Slide from a presentation given at 2011 Design for Drupal in Boston about two popular CSS extensions and Compass with a focus on how they integrate in Drupal environment. The goal is to present and overview of Sass and LESS in order to drive front-end developers to abandon plain old CSS. Compass is talked about as the reason to use Sass over LESS.
Introduction to Sencha Touch as shown at the San Diego Mobile App Hackathon June 2011.
Includes GitHub URLs you might need to get started on the CityBars app...
Building Cross Platform Mobile Web AppsJames Pearce
Frameworks like Sencha Touch are heralding a new way of building mobile services using Javascript, HTML5 and CSS3. If you want to discover how to use standard web technologies to reach your mobile users in beautiful app-like ways, this session is for you.
We explore the possibilities that each of these rich, standards-based libraries can bring, we show how the mobile device is fast becoming a first-class Javascript run-time environment, and we discuss how we might be on the dawn of a new web age, where mobile and client-side applications can immerse billions of users with exciting, contextually-aware experiences.
Building Cloud-Based Cross-Platform Mobile Web AppsJames Pearce
As presented at http://www.meetup.com/MobileCloud/events/17159747/
The web is always evolving, but we're witnessing a significant architectural shift as services migrate to the cloud, business logic moves to ever-thicker clients, and the web escapes the desktop to become a beautifully mobile medium.
In this environment, web application frameworks like Sencha Touch offer a new way of building mobile services using HTML5, CSS3, and JavaScript. We'll explore the possibilities that this rich, standards-based approach can bring, how to develop mobile web apps that look and feel native on iPhone, Android, and BlackBerry touch devices, and how to leverage the power of cloud-based services to provide scalable and compelling applications in this new world.
Building tomorrow's web with today's toolsJames Pearce
Few have the chance to create web-based mobile services from scratch. After years of investment in existing platforms (such as content management systems), how can you re-use your content, your servers, and your knowledge and evolve them to meet the mobile challenge?
Search and Society: Reimagining Information Access for Radical FuturesBhaskar Mitra
The field of Information retrieval (IR) is currently undergoing a transformative shift, at least partly due to the emerging applications of generative AI to information access. In this talk, we will deliberate on the sociotechnical implications of generative AI for information access. We will argue that there is both a critical necessity and an exciting opportunity for the IR community to re-center our research agendas on societal needs while dismantling the artificial separation between the work on fairness, accountability, transparency, and ethics in IR and the rest of IR research. Instead of adopting a reactionary strategy of trying to mitigate potential social harms from emerging technologies, the community should aim to proactively set the research agenda for the kinds of systems we should build inspired by diverse explicitly stated sociotechnical imaginaries. The sociotechnical imaginaries that underpin the design and development of information access technologies needs to be explicitly articulated, and we need to develop theories of change in context of these diverse perspectives. Our guiding future imaginaries must be informed by other academic fields, such as democratic theory and critical theory, and should be co-developed with social science scholars, legal scholars, civil rights and social justice activists, and artists, among others.

"Impact of front-end architecture on development cost", Viktor TurskyiFwdays
I have heard many times that architecture is not important for the front-end. Also, many times I have seen how developers implement features on the front-end just following the standard rules for a framework and think that this is enough to successfully launch the project, and then the project fails. How to prevent this and what approach to choose? I have launched dozens of complex projects and during the talk we will analyze which approaches have worked for me and which have not.
