There is a popular saying in Computer Science:

"There are only two hard things in Computer Science: cache invalidation and naming things." -- Phil Karlton

In this 4th installment of the CSS.la study group, we will explore solutions for the latter: naming our selectors in CSS. Adopting a strategy for naming will greatly improve the organization, re-usability, and readability of your code!

This month we will be in Hollywood, graciously hosted by Fender Guitars at their office at Sunset and Gower.

Agenda:

6:30 - 7:00ish – Arrive and have some food!
7:00 - 7:45ish – Introduction to naming conventions, then digging deeper in semantic naming (BEM) and presentational naming (atomic/functional CSS, presented by Lucas Allmon from Fender!)
7:45ish - 9:00 – Pair program in CodePens based on provided exercises, request a demo, or work on whatever you like!
9:00ish – Bye! Have a safe trip home!

We will be keeping track of the agenda and notes and links in this Dropbox Paper: https://paper.dropbox.com/doc/CSS.la-4-Naming-Conventions--AK741kggQubut5W4D1VSNsvZAg-NNwsgZES3OpJAOINatkO3
