Young children can seem to get touch devices right away. Still, there are important guidelines to follow when designing for little ones, to maximize their engagement and minimize their frustration. Through a tour of apps currently on the market, we'll explore techniques such as using characters, audio and visual indicators, and inactivity timeouts. We'll also cover which gestures are the most and least intuitive for small fingers, how a child's grip of the device affects UI, and what content to include for parents (and for legal reasons) and how.]]>

Sassy Stylesheets with SCSS /slideshow/sassy-stylesheets-with-scss/26194118 sassy-130914103206-phpapp01
If you've ever wished for more readable and maintainable CSS, SCSS (the current version of Sass) is the tool you've been waiting for. SCSS builds upon CSS3 to add features such as reusable variables and blocks, functions for manipulating colors and doing mathematical operations, selector nesting, and style inheritance. Before deploying, you simply compile your SCSS into ordinary CSS files in one easy (and easily automated) step. This session will present the core features of SCSS with helpful examples, and get you excited about writing CSS again.]]>
