This week a small and easy tweak for the youngest.
Have you ever faced this need?
Thx to HorizontalNav for the image, he faces the same problem as us and resolve it with a plugin
Instead of using some fancy jquery plugins we’ll solve this with 2 css lines. No big deal.
Hello folks, today i’ll discuss about a cool method i made out of nothing, have you ever faced the problem to render icons or maybe different pics and have to declare an awful number of css classes?
Maybe not, since it’s not common to do this shit for a normal job nowadays, anyway i came up with a brilliant solution, i’m so proud that i wanted to share.
The Problem
We’ve got a lot of RPG Heroes, with a lot of awful faces, hair colors and different haircuts. We hate them, i’ve seen dropbox sprite solution and they declare about 200 classes for their icons, but we’ve got twig and we’re working on Symfony2 so we want to be fast and smart.
The Solution
Ok i lied, 20 minutes are not enough, but i will make you understand the possibilities of LESS and made your first less CSS quickly and nicely!
This is no boring article, i swear!
If you don’t what is LESS you could read it here.
If you don’t understand why you should use it instead of pure CSS, then i tell you: ” Quit the bitching and follow the tutorial. ”
Less is fantastic, modern and saves tons of minutes of coding. You’ll love LESS when you read the whole article, so keep on reading.
