Forward to a Friend   |   Unsubscribe instantly Build Bootstrap in Minutes Using Emmet Bootstrap (current version Bootstrap 3 RC1) is all about rapidly building websites, whether they be prototypes or finished products. In today's videos we're going to build ourselves a Bootstrap layout, in record time, using Emmet's powerful time-saving markup syntax. Foundation for Beginners: Sticky Navigation, Flexible Video and Zepto In this part of our examination of Zurb Foundation we'll talk about Magellan, which creates sticky navigation. We'll look at visibility classes, right-to-left support, keystrokes, thumbnails, flexible video and the ins and outs of zepto. I'll explain the use cases of these features and how best to implement them in your projects. Improving Layout With Vertical Rhythm Learning all about the ins and outs of the technical side of typography is good. It will give you a solid grounding when looking for typefaces or fonts and will help you understand a little more about the art of typography itself. You'll soon realise how much hard work it takes to get type right at any time, not just on the web. Typography Basics for Developers Typography is a fundamental element in any design that you work on. The main reason we have websites in the first place is to display information, and for that information to be consumed by users who come across it. While there may be many other elements to a website, at the core is content. That content needs to be easily read, digested, understood and having a solid typographic base will only help with that. Build a Dynamic Dashboard With ChartJS Today we will be creating a dynamic dashboard with live charts, through the power of ChartJS. ChartJS is a powerful, dependency free JavaScript library which builds graphs via the canvas element. Best of all, it's easy for designers to get up and running. We'll be focusing on the pieces of the library that get you up and running with beautiful and functional charts fast. We will build a mobile-friendly dashboard from start to finish.
