Grumm18232yseems like a huge task.
But out of curiosity, how do you debug your css code ? Oo
Do you use special tools for debugging ? -
@Grumm Usually is more about refactoring rather than debugging.
Convert CSS into SCSS. Separate into SMACSS components. And separate states vs components with animations
I see that most jr. Devs put everything into one file and don't follow the coding standards setup by the framework.
So technically I will consider it buggy code since it's not following any standard. Just "hacks"
Very hard to expand upon or create features on top of it. -
@PonySlaystation The dev did not follow any standards at all. Used dumb js hacks for sliders and images and left a steaming pile to debug. I'm usually very chill with jr codebase but damn this person shouldn't be allowed to code alone at that level. Glad I overestimate this project since this has been a nightmare to debug

nachocode6When you talk to other devs about what their code did. I also relate myself to this.
Nothing better than debugging 7000+ lines of css code when the theme had Grunt setup by default. (Old theme needs update because of client reasons)
Luckily the dev did a good job of adding comments. So I got that going on for me.
Trying to stay more positive this week.
