I've actually been wondering the opposite: What do I need to read/use to avoid knowing (as much as possible) about CSS?
Not caring for pixel-perfection, I want to be able to develop simple UIs intuitively, without any need to code (css) anything.
What are my options?
- nomdep 5y agoPre made UI libraries like Bootstrap or Tailwind UI
- shane_b 5y agoI use Tailwind and I purchased their templates. They provide starting points for common web features. Stuff that would take a lot of time to make.
- crispyambulance 5y agoYou really can't avoid CSS unless you use turgid, opinionated and increasingly out-of-date stuff like Bootstrap and it's ilk. If you just want to be able to execute your will intuitively, it's much better to learn "enough" modern CSS and stick to modern browsers. Now with CSS Grid for layout it's so much less frustrating than just having Flexbox, and a world away from the dumpster-fire that was Floats (and before that, html tables).
- agumonkey 5y agoI agree, for all functional layouting (not text) grid gives you so much for so few. You can spend a year trying various float tricks and get nowhere, or napkin write a grid layout and get going in 5 minutes.
