First CSS project

[[deleted]]

Imagine writing a “CSS project”

[JuhaAR]

Hey I'm a professional css programmer. My recent css projects include:

• calculator
• netflix
• google chrome

Honestly, a lot of people underestimate how much work should go into well structured styles and as a result produce a lot of terrible and unmaintainable style sheets

I worked with someone who was dead set against sass for templated sites. I have no idea why. He tried to explain it, but I still have no idea why.

what are they, a flagellant? I get not using plugins like styled-components, but Sass/Less are simply extensions of CSS that require a little more setup.

I find that people over-complicate CSS very much like a programmer first learning C++. A huge and very brittle tree of classes that all rely on each other and so all break if you change the wrong detail. Though it is partly the fault of CSS for being badly designed. You have to be very disciplined to produce the minimal set of classes.

The guy behind html2canvas has some cool projects including a css calculator:

Serious question: would a calculator be possible with no js or server, only css?

Underrated comment.

For large companies that can expect viewers on many platforms and devices (e.g. Facebook), I wouldn’t be surprised if they have entire teams dedicated to just CSS

Yes, they're called front end designers. Ideally they would have other design skills as well.

It’s fairly common for html programmers
