Abstract
This month Chad Carter will be presenting on Design Tricks to Help Us Web Developers
So bring your laptop with Visual Studio 2010 to code along with Chad as presents Design tricks.
Many developers I know (including myself) have said at one time or another, â€Design isn’t my thing. I’m a developer. I let someone else do the design. I’ll make it functional and someone else can make it pretty.â€
In this talk we will see how we can make our websites look good even if we don’t have a design degree. Fortunately, there are great resources to make our lives easier. When dealing with CSS, how many times have you said, “Forget it! I’ll use a table!†I used to say it all of the time. With HTML5 at in all form factors (50†monitor, laptop, tablet, phone) with very little effort. By the end of the talk you will know how to get LESS setup in a .NET environment and how Twitter Bootstrap works so you can start using it in your projects immediately..
Please feel free to bring a friend, or more. Come prepared to ask questions, and have lively discussion
