May 2010 Meeting (3 posts)

    Planning our upcoming meeting for Tuesday May 18th. If you have any desire to speak, present or have any idea for topics or discussions please post here. If nobody speaks up for presenting we'll likely just have a roundtable-like discussion as we did in February and pick a few topics.

    I haven't looked over past presentation so you might have already done this:

    Would it be valuable to others to present an overview of popular CSS, Javascript frameworks? I have begun using Yahoo's YUI (Yahoo User Interface Library) framework which has been a pleasant experience so far (for the one site I have developed with it). YUI provides CSS, Reset, and Javascript libraries with fantastic documentation and examples. Not as flashy as jQuery, jQuery UI or Moo Tools, but Yahoo's best argument is that they use these libraries themselves and they are 'battle-tested' with heavy traffic.

    My own site uses the YUI library for a grid layout and jQuery for effects so mixing libraries is also an option.

    Hey Matt. Nobody has really approached the topic but I'd certainly be interested to hear more about YUI and others. I've touched a few others like Blueprint etc but not enough to truly understand the benefits, etc.

    I will say that our discussion about Transcending CSS next Tuesday in most cases goes against what a lot of Frameworks do. Would be interesting to have the other side of the conversation in a future meeting.

    Hopefully we'll catch up on Tuesday.?
