Listen "095: With Daniel Mall"
Episode Synopsis
This week we were joined by super-designer Dan Mall. Dan currently runs Superfriend.ly, is a co-host of the Businessology podcast, and previously worked at Happy Cog and Big Spaceship.
We talked about (roughly in order):
News’n’Links’n’Drama:
17:10 CSSOff #hotdrama: Dan made a PSD that was too good.
Q & A:
33:02 In defense of AMPPS…
34:45 Can you guys rant about the different scenarios on how and/or when and/or why to use javascript on text/typography?
46:21 How much testing and compatibility is enough? Should we just stick to the big 5 browsers on desktops, Android browsers, Safari on mobile devices?
51:48 I’ve been trying a couple of CSS/JS frameworks lately (Bourbon+Neat, Foundation) and I’m struggling to choose which better suits my purposes. What do you suggest? What frameworks/libraries do you guys use for your projects?
