My experiments have left me impressed.
The current state of CSS layout
means that unless you like to spend a lot of time doing calculations
something like Susy is really useful.
The output CSS is pretty much what I’d come up with myself,
which to me is the acid test for tooluse.
I consider Mozilla’s MozTrap to be one of the best
open source test case management systems outthere.

OddBird really changed my thinking
about how successful remote development can be.
We were able to hire them as a complete team,
ready to start adding value immediately,
working as closely as an internalteam.
Since OddBird thinks about handoff from the beginning,
maintenance has been super easy.
For example, 100% unit test coverage was a given.
I never had to ask forit.
This is hands down the best book on Sass
if you want to learn the most important parts of the Sass language
that will help you architect a goodapplication.
Miriam and Kitty have become some of the most notable
creators of Sass plugins and bestpractices.

A mobile-friendly design that will let users see the live tracking
and performance data, even on the go, making it easy to connect up
with others while out on aride.
QuarqNet captures the data
and seamlessly synchronizes activities
with analysis sites like Strava, TrainingPeaks, and Today’s Plan.
Athletes get unaltered, high-definition data
and training logperfection.
The OddBird team did a great job
developing the brand for my algebra website
and revamping the site to reflect both new aesthetics
and better practices for making it look wonderful
on a variety ofdevices.
I appreciated how professional the team was –
keeping me informed about the process
and offering me excellent choices about what direction
to go at keypoints.
Amazing talk by Miriam Suzanne at the Beyond Tellerand conference
about the benefits of using plain CSS
instead of heavy library for your grid!
Very useful and inspiring.Thanks!
Other developers build exactly what you say,
or they don’t understand,
and develop the wrong thing.
OddBird always thinks about the project goals.
I defer to the team expertise now,
which makes a betterresult.
I have been having so much fun with this
tool. The tool has been very helpful and
you all have really helped me think about
scheduling creatively. Thanksagain!
The internet was useless in deciding who to hire,
with too much conflicting info.
Then I found OddBird,
providing a focused team
with a wide range oftalent.
OddBird allowed me to transform my vision
into an MVP that has momentum.
I’m confident I’ll be able to land big venture capital
and increase my revenue from courses,
because the tool has sped up theprocess.
Well that was awesome!!!
“If you think CSS is a dumb language,
you’re a dumb language – CSSISAWESOME!”
@TerribleMia thank you so much for the amazingtalk!
When the inventor of the modern design system
names you as the number one person she’d hire
to build a design system, well then I jump!
I’m grateful she put us incontact.
It was easy to talk about technology options.
OddBird was both flexible
(working within the constraints of our existing systems)
and opinionated
(bringing context from pastexperience).
I appreciated the specific experience OddBird brought to bear
in terms of building component libraries,
particularly the need to incrementally import the component library
in order to have it successfully beused.
@TerribleMia does not only explain “why CSS is how it is”
but also neatly summarizes the basic principles
of what make the Web the Web.
If you know those principles,
many implementation details will be less baffling toyou.
The Workflow Builder project met and exceeded expectations.
The project was finished in budget and on time,
and we were super excited to get the outcome wedid.
We appreciate that there’s not one package deal at OddBird.
Depending on the project,
different configurations of the OddBird team
were able to integrate with our internal developers.
That worked reallywell.
I think it’s a brilliant idea.
Almost want to stop talking about whether or not to do it,
and just start talkingsyntax.
—Florian Rivoal, Invited ExpertatW3CCSSWG
We take submissions from our team,
and Miriam was a highly desired expert we wanted to learn from!
I really appreciated the different topics
you presented as options
to best talk to our internalaudience.
Oddbird developers know what they’re doing.
We appreciate you all driving us to our goals.
I’m glad usability testing was baked into the process.
It really was so valuable. We are super superhappy.
Had a phenomenal discussion last night with @TerribleMia
on her role in shaping CSS as we know it today,
and some exciting things on the way in the world ofCSS.
