We welcome participants from all skill levels and all disciplines related to website building and development - marketers, project managers, developers, designers, writers, devops, user researchers, QA, and more.

SeaDUG Front-End Online Meeting (11/30/21)
At our last front-end meeting two weeks ago, we talked about linting and enforcing coding standards for files in Drupal themes and other front-end files, and strategies for integrating with IDEs. At today's meeting, we'll talk a bit more about that topic and then take a look at a relatively new feature in NPM called "workspaces," which allows for better management of Node dependencies in a theme. We'll also discuss Tailwind version 3 and how to employ its just-in-time mode to reduce the CSS in a project to just what's needed.

SeaDUG Online Front-End Meeting (January 26, 2021)
At today’s front-end meeting, Christopher Stewart and I will present an introduction to Eleventy, a simple, but powerful, static site generator that works with a wide variety of popular template languages. It also supports populating pages from different data sources, which could include a Drupal-driven backend. We’ll demonstrate Eleventy’s powerful features and show how it can be integrated with Tailwind CSS and a Storybook-enabled, component-based development approach to produce a blazingly fast static website that can easily be deployed to any platform.
