Organize Your CSS

I love being organized. It helps me find things and keep my space open and free of clutter. Of course, having kids… you accept clutter is just a part of life. I’m not going to spend my days cleaning up after the kids. Got more important things to do like go to their games and put my best work forward for clients.

I haven’t played with enough web pages to come up with a way to organize CSS, but plenty of articles How to organize your css code: the ‘killer’ css structure like show you how.

A List Apart #258

Latest issue:

Community: From Little Things, Big Things Grow - “Q. What technology do you need to build the next Flickr? A. Trick question. What you need to build the next Flickr is people. George Oates, a key member of the core team that shaped the Flickr community, shares lessons that can help you grow yours.”

Zebra Striping: Does it Really Help? - “Just because a design convention exists doesn’t mean it works. Our field runneth over with design patterns, but is low on evidence of their utility. Jessica Enders drops some science on the widespread belief that zebra stripes aid the reader by guiding the eye along a table row.”
