FULL STACK FRONTEND

DEVELOPERS?


CROSSFUNCTIONAL FRONTEND TEAMS

Semantics + Accessibility(HTML + ARIA)

Presentation(CSS)

Interactivity(JavaScript / BaaS APIs)27-28 march 2015 @j8matteo

BROWSERS ALREADY DO THAT

<input type=”date” required min=”10” max=”100”>

input[type=”date”]::-webkit-datetime-edit-month-field { color: #bada55;}

document.querySelector(‘input[type=”date”]’).checkValidity();


“WE NEED TO OUTPUT15 PAGE TEMPLATES”

- a random PM


STYLEGUIDE DRIVEN DEVELOPMENT


ADVANTAGES:

• shared knowledge base (with teammates and customers)

• every module state and variation is clearly visible• code snippets (how to implement) and visual

output (how it looks)
