Let's Get Nerdy : WordPress, Page Builders, CSS Class-First Design and more with Kevin Geary
Ep. 282 - It’s a wild time in web design right now. Especially in the WordPress ecosystem where many changes are afoot with the direction of WordPress, the block editor and the role that page builders (like Divi and Elementor) may or may not play.
To explore this more deeply, I’m excited to bring on fellow web design educator Kevin Geary (creator of automatic.css and frames for WordPress) who shares his perspective on where WordPress is headed, the role of page builders moving forward, CSS class first design for scalability and more.
In this chat, we get devy, a little nerdy and share some honest thoughts on the pros and cons of where WordPress is heading as we cover:
The importance of CSS class-first best practices
Divi, Elementor, Oxygen, Bricks and other builders vs the block editor
WordPress’s big initiative for FSE (full site editing)
Why choosing 1 tool helps to scale small
The future of WordPress as users ourselves
And a whole lot more.
It was fun talking shop and diving back into the wonderful world of CSS and dev talk in this one!
