A well-designed CSS style guide offers more than just consistent patterns; it ensures web accessibility, better site performance, improved engineering and design efficiency, and provides your users with a uniform experience across your entire application or suite of applications. In this course, you'll learn how to build a CSS style guide from scratch. You'll explore each of the user interface (UI) components that go into the most effective style guides; you'll examine the benefits of maintaining a “living” style guide (i.e., provides flexibility, responds to an application's changing needs, etc.); and you'll learn about the analysis and linting tools that measure your CSS and assist with style guide maintenance. Participants should understand the fundamentals of HTML and CSS.Learn how to build a style guide from scratch using the PostCSS style guide builderExplore the different UI components that make up a style guideDiscover how to incorporate a style guide in your product or websiteUnderstand why you need a “living” style guide and how to maintain oneLearn how to measure your CSS for redundancy, accessibility, and complexityExplore the process and linting required to analyze and maintain a style guideArchana Sankaranarayanan has a passion for building simple and intuitive user experiences.
