Abstract:

CSS: Can you? !== Should you?

Many developers have not taken the time to stay immersed in what CSS can do, and most take advantageonly of the most minimal levels of what it can do when applying styles to a project. However, CSS is capable of far more things now than many developers realize. This presentation reveals some of the things CSS can do that many people use JS frameworks and plugins for, and discusses performance and usage pros and cons. We can make a pure-CSS party parrot, but that doesn’t mean we really should… or should we?
