  • 3:20 What is the best approach for CSS grid layout fallbacks? I realise IE11 has an early grid implementation, and IE10 none. Do I write new CSS for each?
  • 16:40 You rarely reference Angular when talking about JavaScript - is this an intentional omission?
  • 27:20 I remember a time when JS was frowned upon by many developers in general and kept to a minimum. I am wondering what has not only erased the JavaScript security concerns but allowed it for content generation, and caused so many developers to think only in JS terms.
  • 46:00 LAMP hosts are a dime a dozen, but one's supporting NodeJS seem much more limited. Any insights into these requirements is much appreciated, as is any real-work experience either of you have had with JavaScript SSR in general.
  • 52:25 What kind of development setup should I use to avoid CORS issues or having to use jsonp, which I'd really like to avoid?
