Do you develop custom themes for your WordPress-based projects? Maybe you make a living off of theme development. This session will demonstrate a modern take on front-end development for WordPress themes. What does that mean? Primarily, it means introducing tooling into your workflow. Grunt, Sass, CoffeeScript, Yeoman and all of the other wonderful tools available to make your job as a front-end designer or developer easier. You’ll see how Yeoman can be used to kickstart a new WordPress project in seconds with one command. Next, we’ll talk about how using a tool like Grunt can make your life easier in everything from pre-compiling SCSS and CoffeeScript to creating your build for distribution. Speaking of Sass, you are using something to give your CSS superpowers right? Finally this talk will show how all of this can be easily integrated into your WordPress theme development.
