In this workshop, you will learn CSS tools and techniques: CSS frameworks like Twitter Bootstrap, media queries to make responsive websites, and more.
The workshop will be a mix of lectures and hands-on exercises in pairs, and will be taught by Brenda, a local web developer and GDI SF chapter lead. This is a great follow-up workshop for those who have attended our HTML/CSS workshop.
