Cascading Style Sheets (CSS) is a style sheet language used to describe the presentation semantics of a document written in a markup language.

CSS3 features like transitions, animations and transforms can add extra spice to your designs.

In this article you will see how you can build an awesome CSS3 animated dropdown menu with some of these cool features.

jQuery Transit is a plugin which helps you do smooth CSS3 transformations and transitions in jQuery. You can set transformations as you would any CSS property in jQuery.

jQuery Transit degrades older browsers by simply not doing the transformations (rotate, scale, etc) while still doing standard CSS (opacity, marginLeft, etc) without any animation.

Being a web developer and crazy coder, I have a couple of ‘must haves’ at my desk  - a mug of coffee, dual-display setup and a couple of crib sheets – HTML 5, CSS3, JavaScript etc. Crib sheets serve as quick reference guide to help me instantly find syntax and attributes when I am stuck. Just like my personal crib sheets, InstaCSS provides an online quick reference guide for CSS properties and attributes.

Highly recommended for web designers and developers! Also check out CSS3files – a comprehensive reference guide for CSS3.

These days when the first and the foremost point of reference is online identity, products and brands that are not on the Internet do not ‘actually’ exist. Thus having a website is a must for entrepreneurs, start ups, brands and personalities – if you are any of these and do not have your own online identity, you must develop your website NOW. You do not have to be a super coder or designer for that. Just get hold of Phrozn and start building your website a minutes.

I am the kind of person who surf a lot on the Internet on many different displays – as large as my 1080p display screens to as small as 320×480 screen of my Xperia Mini. As an avid admirer of web design, one of the prime design factors that I want from websites is responsive layout – quick and clutter-free layout that works well on all display sizes. The idea of liquid or responsive layout is to design single design for all types of devices and displays.

Fortunately, achieving responsive layout design is not a big deal. There are a number of frameworks that provide built-in support for responsive layouts for websites and applications – just like Amazium. It is a lightweight and open source development framework that allows you to build standardized and responsive layouts using 960 grid system. The built-on support for 960 grid system makes Amazium exclusively different from other frameworks.
