That is a lot in one sentence, but basically it explains it all. Maintaining a vertical rhythm is hard enough by itself and takes a lot of time and thinking to accomplish.
The problem with maintaining a proper rhythm are objects (like images) that have dynamic heights. Like the images on this blog, or when you have clients uploading their content which isn’t perfectly resized / cropped to your line-height.
For this I created a jQuery plugin that fixes the rhythm: Keep the Rhythm.
Creating CSS rules for retina sprites and background images can be a drag. I wrote a quick mixin that will help you with this. It allows you to use sprites in Compass with added retina variants. Works just like the normal sprites helpers, but has been made a lot easier with these mixins.
Admit it: CSS is awesome, but it’s default syntax is insanely stupid. Are you tired of the way CSS is written and proves to be quite useless and cluttered once the project grows and gets more styling? It just takes up way too much of our time to organize and it’s plain stupid if we stick with this kind of workflow.
That’s when CSS compilers came around, and it will change your life. This post will describe the benefits of CSS compiling and in which possible ways you can use it.
