Let’s face it… while CSS is as basic a language as you can get, it can be a challenge to master - especially when it comes to implementing large scalable projects. Without some sort of framework, it’s easy to end up in specificity spaghetti with severely duplicated code, browser performance issues, and generally unmaintainable, unsemantic, and unscalable CSS code. Adopting a design pattern like OOCSS will help you eliminate these nightmares and make crafting your CSS a joy once again. This workshop will examine the importance of a modular CSS architecture, profile the core principles of OOCSS, allow you to try your hand at module implementation, and touch on a few of the pros and “cons” of the system.
