After the first two days of many sessions and events, post-conference workshops are a chance to dive-deep on a select topics led by some of the brightest in our industry.
Select from supercharging your Sass into your workflow; add powerful testing suites with visual regression; or bring clarity with your code with Jonathan Snook’s SMACSS Workshop. And, to make sure you don’t learn on an empty stomach, workshop registrations come with breakfast and lunch included.
The SMACSS Workshop by Jonathan Snook is a full day of instruction and exercises on writing HTML and CSS using a flexible and modular approach that will improve team efficiency and minimize problems with growing projects.
