Making style sheets easier to maintain for yourself and others, by fully understanding and leveraging Drupal’s theming system, and thinking of what will happen tomorrow.

Making style sheets easier to maintain for yourself and others, by fully understanding and leveraging Drupal’s theming system, and thinking of what will happen tomorrow.

We’ve all seen them; style sheets so large and confusing that we ended up adding new styles at the bottom of the file we happened to have open in our editor, instead of looking for a proper location. It’s unacceptable, especially when working together with multiple themers. In this session we’ll take a look at common pitfalls, ways to prevent these situations and keep our styles more sustainable.
