Style guide page title

Apply for the next session

Almost every page is going to have an aggresive heading like you see above. It's also very likely to have a 'page-intro' like this. In this case, Welcome to the style guide! This shows how everything on the site will look all in one place.

These intros will likely have many paragraphs. We're setting the stage for the article or lesson plan. It's the Amuse-bouche of this content. It needs to be short and sweet.

Color and texture ideas

Normally, I would use names like $color, and $highlight and $alternate, and $color-light... because the idea of the "main color" is different than the actual color. It might change... but in this case there are so many - that it actually makes sense to use their real names, I think...

This 70's kinda rainbow/primary colors kids-classroom - is specific enough that it pulls us all-in.

Black and white

$black $white $gray $gray-light $gray-dark $gray-lighter

Color

$black $white $wheat-light $cyan $red $orange $yellow $green $blue $purple

HTML element

Paragraph

<p>This is a paragraph.</p>

If you could only have one element, we’d argue that it should be for paragraphs. They’ll break your thoughts up into manageable chunks.

But what are “paragraphs,” really? It’s contentious.

CSS selector

Class

.welcome {

}

Adding a dot will signify to select elements with that class name.

<section class='welcome'>

Newly introduced language features

CSS property

display: grid
```
.parent {
	display: grid;
}
```
This lets the element know that it can now harness the power of the CSS Grid layout system.

By default, this will set all child element to occupy 1 grid “Cell.” Those cells will be 1 fraction of the parent width (1fr). (which in this case is the full width)

Note that this will effectively turn off display: flex if previously set.
CSS property

Gap
```
.parent {
 	display: grid;
	gap: 20px;
}
```
Gap determines the space between elements in both flexbox and grid layout systems. A declaration of

display: grid; and gap: 20px; on a parent element – will put some space between child items. This allows you to avoid the logic of putting margins between things and dealing with unwanted margins on the first or last element.
CSS property

Template columns
```
.parent {
    display: grid;
    grid-template-columns: 1fr 1fr;
}
```
Grid allows you to predefine how its columns and row are set up. This will determine how the cells are arranged.

You can set the template up in many ways. The first step might be to focus on the columns. This property takes a list of lengths (items separated by a space), which will define the ratio of the columns. Try all the things you can think of. 1fr 1fr will set up 2 columns at 1 fraction each. This is effectively saying there is 2 parts total, and each column is 1 part wide.

CSS property

Grid column

.child {
    grid-column: 1 / 3; // inhabit from grid line 1 to 3 (cell 1 and 2)
}

.child {
    grid-column: span 4; // span the length of 4 cells
}

.child {
    grid-column: 3 / span 2; // start at grid line 1 and span 2 cells
}

And give it a shot with grid-row too 😉

This is a code example with no optional descriptions

pseudo code

[my thing]
	- type: h1
	- content: "The text..."
	- id: "something-unique"
	- style:
		- color: blue
 		- font-size: 30px
	- href: "httpe://perpetual.education"

index.html

<h1>The text...</h1>

<h1 id='something-unique'>The text...</h1>

<h1 style='color: blue;'>The text...</h1>

<h1 style='color: blue; font-size: 30px;'>The text...</h1>

<a href='file-path-to-request.html'>The text...</a>

<a id='special-name' style='color: blue; font-size: 30px;' href='file-path-to-request.html'>The text...</a>

This is the description of the code example – which should explain why they should care.

The only new properties you'll need for today's lesson

If you’re looking things up on Google, then you’re just being avoidant. Sit down and just figure it out – with these few tools.

emphasis

This is a “picture_module” description. There is some emphasis and some strong emphasis. Somethings there will be some links and maybe some highlighted copy?

It should fit between “text” modules seamlessly – but hold it’s own – in case we style it differently – or have full-width background color etc. A lot of the images I want to use – are low quality… (because they are old!) – so, maybe we can have a filter or something to help keep them uniform… or even better… – have someone draw them… over again – so we aren’t in a legal issue… Example of ‘picture’ element for swapping out images (crop) for different screen sizes.

Don't forget that you are full of wonder...

Picture description

Question / prompt. Does that sound fun?

Well, maybe we can answer those questions. Let’s talk.

Key
concept

Biophilia

The hypothesis that “natural” environments can aid focus and concentration by releasing stress. In simple terms – we are natural beings. We have a history of being a part of nature. Nature has natural Rhythms that we relate too – unlike our beeps and dings and LED lighting in cubicles. Makes sense, right? So – adding some nature – and some organic stuff can really change how we feel about things.

Wikipedia

Some context to how this works… in this case / the term could be “live style guide” – or something / and we could discuss what that meant – in the context of this “live style guide.”

Base HTML template

Bash

<section class="page-section module-name module-theme-classes">
  <h2 class="heading">Module heading</h2>
</section>

What we’d like the templating engine to spit out. This is the ideal outcome.

The data

Bash

var sections = [
  {
    styles: "styles-here",
    heading: "Example heading 1",
  },
  {
    styles: "styles-here highlight",
  },
  {
    styles: "styles-here",
    heading: "Example heading 3",
  },
];

Something like this

PHP implementation

Bash

<?php foreach ($sections as $section) { ?>
  <section class="page-section <?=$section['styles']?>">
    <?php if ($section['heading']) { ?>
      <h2 class="heading"><?=$section['heading']?></h2>
    <?php } ?>
  </section>
<?php } ?>

Description here…

Plain JavaScript

Bash

function renderSection(section) {
  var hasHeading = section.heading;
  if (hasHeading) {
    var $heading = `<h2 class="heading">${section.heading}</h2>`;
  }
  return `
    <section class="page-section ${section.styles}">
      ${hasHeading ? $heading : "No heading provided"}
    </section>
  `;
}

function renderSections(sections) {
  var list = sections.map( function(section) {
    return renderSection(section);
  }).join('');
  document.body.innerHTML = list;
}

renderSections(sections);

…

Ember implementation

Bash

{{#each sections as |section||}}
  <section class="page-section {{section.styles}}>">
    {{#if section.heading}}
      <h2 class="heading">{{section.heading}}</h2>
    {{/if}}
  </section>
{{/each}}

Ember description

Vue & (angular 1.5ish)

Optimism can be painful!

It’s really great that we are confident. I want to harness that power. The problem is – that this Dunning-Kruger Effect – really bums us out! Our powerful feelings and our optimism are distorted. It’s not logical to expect to be the best at anything right out of the gate (or ever). That shouldn’t be the goal. MOST PEOPLE ARE AVERAGE – AND THAT IS OK! “Average” is definitely good enough. BUT – let’s reframe this whole thing. The “Valley of dispair” is TERRIBLE and is 100% avoidable. This red line is ‘confidence.’ Why should your confidence jump around like that? I mean… you can do it. I know you can do it. It’s a fact. Your confidence can be steady.

Heading level 2
