Is Your Corporate Brochure Design Worth Viewing! - 0 views

  •  
    Your corporate brochure design should include elements that make it worth viewing. The print size, the purpose, simplified content, a beguiling cover, and a call-to-action are significant aspects to consider.

An introduction to LESS, and comparison to Sass | Smashing Coding - 0 views

  • The only difference in variables between LESS and Sass is that, while LESS uses @, Sass uses $. There are some scope differences as well, which I’ll get to shortly.
  • With Sass, you declare @mixin prior to the style to identify it as a mixin. Later, you declare @include to call it.
  • Parametric Mixins Like having functions in your CSS (*swoon*), these can be immensely useful for those seemingly redundant tasks of modern-day CSS.
  • ...8 more annotations...
  • .border-radius( @radius: 3px ) { -webkit-border-radius: @radius; -moz-border-radius: @radius; border-radius: @radius; }
  • The syntax in Sass is very similar to that of LESS. Just use the $ for variables, and call the mixins with the @mixin and @include method mentioned earlier.
  • Selector Inheritance Here’s something not provided in LESS. With this ability, you can append a selector to a previously established selector without the need to add it in a comma-separated format. .menu { border: 1px solid #ddd; } .footer { @extend .menu; } /* will render like so: */ .menu, .footer { border: 1px solid #ddd; }
  • With LESS, you can nest ids, classes and elements as you go.
  • You can also refer in element styles to their pseudo-elements by using the &, which in this case functions similar to this in JavaScript.
  • Sass is a lot more versatile with numbers than LESS. It has built into it conversion tables to combine comparable units.
  • Sass seems to have a lot more color options — not that I would need them all. Lighten and darken are the only ones that I see myself using often.
  • Conditionals and Control This is rather nifty, and another thing not provided by LESS. With Sass, you have the ability to use if { } else { } conditional statements, as well as for { } loops. It supports and, or and not, as well as the <, >, <=, >= and == operators.

A List Apart: Articles: Faux Absolute Positioning - 0 views

  •  
    There are two popular approaches to positioning with CSS: float and absolute positioning. Both approaches have their pros and cons. My teammates and I have developed a new positioning approach that gives us the best of both worlds. After quite a bit of experimenting and testing, it's time to share the technique with the rest of the world and see how we can work together to improve it. I'm calling it "faux absolute positioning" after the faux columns technique that simulates the presence of a column.

Introducing LESS: a Better CSS « Usability Post - 0 views

  •  
    Some bright folks also feel the same pain and went ahead and built meta-languages and compilers that take their own version of CSS and compile it to standard CSS code. Their own CSS meta-language is thus able to have new features, like variables, mixins, operations and so on. The most notable of these right now is SASS (part of HAML). I've tried SASS and really liked it, but one thing really bothered me. I didn't like how all the syntax was different to CSS. Sure, it's not CSS anymore, it's SASS, but do we really need to change the syntax of the stuff already present in CSS - why not just expand it? I've asked a friend of mine who is much more competent at programming than me about how long it would take to code a CSS compiler that retained the original CSS syntax but added a bunch of new features. He liked the idea and so we've put together our own version of CSS together with a compiler we call LESS, which stands for Leaner CSS.
