Time Jumps
- 15:48 Godaddy aquired Media Temple
- 24:30 I want to use a 'mobile first' approach, but the client wants to see the desktop version first. How would you solve this little problem?
- 31:14 I'm trying to understand Javascript templating. I've heard of Mustache/Handlebars, but not sure how it's implemented. What are the pros/cons of it?
- 42:58 I manage an established, spaghetti-coded academic department website. A redesign is on its way but the menu is still hover based. I needed a quick, temporary fix.
- 51:43 My question is about vanilla javascript performance and libraries. What if you already have jQuery running, should you still write as much as possible in plain javascript?
