Pick Out Beautiful Background Patterns to Highlight Your Website Design - 0 views

  •  
    Beautiful background patterns can distinguish and highlight your site, amongst millions of others. However, web designers should ensure that the pattern matches theme of the site and does not overwhelm the content. Additionally, avoid using patterns throughout the site.

Patternify | CSS Pattern Generator - 0 views

  •  
    Patternify is a simple CSS pattern generator. Its graphical web-based interface lets you draw the pattern you want, and then it generates the CSS code for you. Instead of having to launch your graphics editor and creating a 2px by 2px image, you can just build your pattern online using this. And with the base64 code, you don't even need an image file anymore: just include the code in your CSS and you're ready to rock.

bjankord/Style-Guide-Boilerplate - 0 views

  • I recommend creating a directory named style-guide in your site's root directory. I think it would be awesome if I could go to anysite.com/style-guide/ and check out that site's style guide.
  • You should be able to go to yoursite.com/style-guide/ and see how your live site's CSS affects base elements.
  • Below the custom styles for the boilerplate, you will add in your own custom stylesheet(s) which you use on your live site.

  • To create custom patterns like buttons, breadcrumbs, alert messages, etc., create a new .html file and add your HTML markup into the file. Save the file as pattern-name.html into the markup/patterns directory inside of your style-guide directory.

Sass Style Guide | CSS-Tricks - 0 views

  • List @extend(s) First
  • List "Regular" Styles Next
  • List @include(s) Next
  • ...9 more annotations...
  • All Vendor Prefixes Use @mixins
  • Global and Section-Specific Sass Files Are just Table of Contents In other words, no styles directly in them. Force yourself to keep all styles organized into component parts.
  • If you find yourself using a number other than 0 or 100% over and over, it likely deserves a variable.
  • List Vendor/Global Dependancies First, Then Author Dependancies, Then Patterns, Then Parts
  • In Deployment, Compile Compressed
  • Comments get stripped when compiling to compressed code, so there is no cost.
  • Partials are named _partial.scss
  • Variablize All Colors Except perhaps white and black.
  • In your global stylesheet, @import a _shame.scss file last.
