CSS is a pretty completely awesome tool, and I love it. I had the chance to talk about CSS at WordCamp Birmingham on Saturday, and here are the things I covered:
- the very basic things you need to know to get started with CSS,
- browsers and browser developer tools,
- adventures in color palettes,
- how to add CSS to WordPress themes,
- and showcase examples of what I like to think of as the Cracker Jack surprise inside every website.
