About Us

Speaking & Training

Conferences, workshops, and more…

We’re constantly learning from the inspiration and mentoring of others, so we like to pass that knowledge along: talking and writing about the tools and practices that have helped improve our work. We also provide workshops and in-house trainings – to help improve design systems, designer-developer communication, site performance, and accessibility.

Dynamic CSS: Layouts & Beyond at Generate 2019

on with Miriam Suzanne in New York, NY

CSS has come a long way since the browser wars of the late 90s. What used to be a struggle, is now often a breeze (see box-shadow or border-radius). But the last 2 years have pushed CSS into entirely new territory: with DOM-aware variables and calculations that can drive your design, without all the invasive Javascript.
