Packt is pleased to announce the release of its new book Designing Next Generation Web Projects with CSS3; the book that will help readers learn the implementation of CSS3 properties and features. Written by Sandro Paganotti, this book explains to the readers ten web projects fully developed using cutting edge CSS3 techniques.
Cascading Style Sheets (CSS) is a style sheet language used for describing the presentation semantics (the look and formatting) of a document written in a markup language. It’s most common application is to style web pages written in HTML and XHTML, but the language can also be applied to any kind of XML document, including plain XML, SVG and XUL.
Designing Next Generation Web Projects with CSS3 shows readers how CSS3 properties and techniques are applied to complete web projects, explains tools to deal with CSS increasing in complexity, such as experimental vendor prefixes and practical aspects like implementation techniques and fallback strategies.
The book starts off with projects using well supported features across web browsers and then it moves to more sophisticated techniques such as multi polyfill implementation and creating a zooming user interface with SVG and CSS. It gives information about time saving implementation tips and tricks as well as fallback and graceful degradation approaches. The book also covers - HTML5 form validation, targeting CSS rules to specific devices, triggering animations and behaviour in response to user interaction and dealing with old browsers.
Designing Next Generation Web Projects with CSS3 requires readers to have a thorough knowledge of CSS syntax and of the most common CSS2 properties and selectors. The book is now available for purchase in print and popular e-book formats at the Packt book-page.
