Ask HN: Your favorite HTML/CSS tools, tips and tricks?

1 pointsby eriktrautmanalmost 11 years ago
Personally, the Chrome Developer Tools[1] are invaluable for debugging and playing with CSS styles right in the browser. The Pesticide Add-on [1b] is great for debugging CSS because it simply puts boxes around everything. I also use SASS preprocessing [2] to massively improve my development speed and sanity with CSS. The nesting they allow fits right in with a developer&#x27;s mindset. I&#x27;ll also throw the Bootstrap Framework [3] in there because it saves tons of time (until you get to a certain complexity and start fighting it) with producing good-looking pages.<p>That said, I still go down long rabbit-holes trying to figure out what&#x27;s not working properly and feel like workflows could definitely be improved. What tools or processes do you use to debug or develop more efficiently that you couldn&#x27;t do without?<p>[1]: https:&#x2F;&#x2F;developer.chrome.com&#x2F;devtools [1b]: http:&#x2F;&#x2F;pesticide.io&#x2F; [2]: http:&#x2F;&#x2F;sass-lang.com&#x2F; [3]: http:&#x2F;&#x2F;getbootstrap.com&#x2F;
