  • <!doctype html>
    <meta charset="utf-8" />
    <link rel="stylesheet" href="..." />
    <script src="..."></script>
That's not all...

  • <form method="get">
        <input type="text" name="tel" />
        <input type="password" name="pass" />

    </form>

Graceful Degradation vs Progressive Enhancement

Graceful Degradation

  • .element {
    	linear-gradient(to left, #600000, #c80000);
    	}
  • .element {
    	linear-gradient(to left, #600000, #c80000);
    	}
    
    .lt-ie9 .element {
    	background-color: #920000;
    	background-image: url(...);
    	}

Progressive Enhancement

  • .element {
    	background-color: #920000;
    	}
    
    .element:hover {
    	background-color: #c80000;
    	}
  • .element {
    	background-color: #920000;
    	transition: background-color linear .2s;
    	}
    
    .element:hover {
    	background-color: #c80000;
    	}

	0  2px #eee;

	}

Wrong classnames

  • .button {
    	padding: 10px 20px;
    	border: 1px solid;
    	}
    
    .button-red {
    	border-color: #f33;
    	background: #faa;
    	color: #f66;
    	}
    
    .button-green {
    	border-color: #3f3;
    	background: #afa;
    	color: #6f6;
    	}
    
    .button-blue {
    	border-color: #33f;
    	background: #aaf;
    	color: #66f;
    	}
  • .button {
    	padding: 10px 20px;
    	border: 1px solid;
    	}
    
    .button-cancel {
    	border-color: #f33;
    	background: #faa;
    	color: #f66;
    	}
    
    .button-success {
    	border-color: #3f3;
    	background: #afa;
    	color: #6f6;
    	}
    
    .button-info {
    	border-color: #33f;
    	background: #aaf;
    	color: #66f;
    	}
Always code as if the guy who ends up maintaining your code will be a violent psychopath who knows where you live.
