Frameworks of Tomorrow 2

This is the second time I've given this talk (the first was at Future Insights Live 2013 in Las Vegas). That presentation can be found at https://speakerdeck.com/mdo/frameworks-of-tomorrow.

It's been reworked for content, style, and flow for a slightly more unique presentation for the Frontend Conference (http://2013.frontendconf.ch/) in Zürich, Switzerland.

Original excerpt:

Nearly two years ago, the type of frameworks we use dramatically changed, and they’ll do the same again in the near future given the trajectory of today's tools. We’ll take a brief look back through not only the evolution of front-end frameworks, but where they may be heading in the next couple years—and how to prepare yourself for them today

  4. Getting to Today A few shifts led to this new

    breed of front-end frameworks.
  5. Normalize.css Some typography Any grid system CSS preprocessor Handful of

    JavaScript plugins Compilation framework + + + + =
  6. // Make a generic class .button { ... } //

    Use it everywhere else .call-to-action { .button(); } 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9

    a modal <button class=”close” data-dismiss=”modal”> &times; </button> // Or an alert <button class=”close” data-dismiss=”alert”> &times; </button>
  8. • In-house frameworks as the norm • More frameworks from

    products • Learn from others first
  9. // Media query on individual components // as envisioned by

    @jon_neal. // // github.com/jonathantneal/MediaClass .widget:media(max-width: 300px) { font-size: 14px; } 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8
  10. • Changes the responsive game • All about content, not

    devices • Huge potential outside frameworks
  11. • Steve Smith: Designing with the Web • Made his

    own compilation framework • CSS3 and WebKit • Use your final assets (bitmaps) • Real data from an API
  12. • Frameworks changed the Web • More tools = more

    frameworks • Responsive content • Designing & developing for native • Super exciting stuff!
