More cool languages (Esoteric Programming language family)

• Ook! - designed to be understood by Orangutans
• ArnoldC - keywords are actually qoutes from Arnold Schwarznegger movies
• Brainfuck - extreme minimalism (eight simple commands + instruction pointer)

And so many more...

Use "Helper Classes"

for example: pull-left

Say you need a button...

<button type="button" class="btn btn-default p-script-screenshot-btn">...</button>

Don't...

html

CSS

.p-script-screenshot-btn {
    float: right
    color: #0165a0;
    border: none;
    background-color: inherit;
}

Using floats for positioning is great...

But, It's

• not the CSS class fault it was designed to be on the right...
• prevents the class from being "REUSED"
  • say you need it in another place on the left ?

<button type="button" class="btn btn-default p-script-screenshot-btn pull-right">...</button>

Better...

html

CSS

.p-script-screenshot-btn {
    color: #0165a0;
    border: none;
    background-color: inherit;
}

Now the CSS class is more generic :)

A Trick ?

"Content" property

Remember that nice button ?

<button type="button" class="btn btn-default p-script-screenshot-btn>
    <i class="fa fa-desktop"></i>
</button>

.p-script-screenshot-btn {
    padding: 1px 6px;
    color: #0165a0;
    border: none;
    background-color: inherit;
}

html

CSS

Another way to pull this off ?

<button type="button" class="btn btn-default p-script-screenshot-btn">
</button>

.p-script-screenshot-btn {
    padding: 1px 6px;
    color: #0165a0;
    border: none;
    background-color: inherit;
}

.p-script-screenshot-btn:after{
  font-family: FontAwesome;  
  content: '\f108'; 
}

html

CSS

leverage the "content" property - generalize the component
