Modern CSS for Backend Developers

via Laracasts

Overview

I know too many backend developers who are stifled by one glaring phobia: CSS. How do you construct a layout when nothing lines up? Every browser renders your code differently. Floats constantly break. Nothing works! If you agree, your thinking might be a bit out of date. You'll be happy to hear that the ecosystem is vastly better than fifteen years ago. This series is specifically for backend developers who understand the basics, but need a fast primer on modern CSS that they'll actually use in their day-to-day workflow.
