Refresh DC October Meetup: From Comp to Code October 23, 2008
Washington, District of Columbia 20036-5610
Last month, we saw how Nguyet Vuong moves from a design concept toward a final, client-approved comp. This month, Jason Garber will show you how he transforms this same comp into standards-based, accessible markup and code. He'll talk about a variety of techniques that help not only maintain the integrity of the comp, but also incorporate best practices, search-friendly markup, and improve the user experience overall.
Refresh DC founder and organizer emeritus Jason Garber is no stranger to the web. As a front-end developer at Mixx, and previously at AOL, Jason has been around the block a few times when it comes to web standards, and it shows in the work he produces. When not working out a great text editor, Jason is shedding on other axes: his guitar and camera.

Yay! Have I mentioned that you're the best developer I've ever worked with? :) - Thanks for making my designs come to life over and over again! I can't wait for this presentation!

I realized earlier today that this is my first solo presentation at Refresh. Weird.

Staffmagnet will be providing the foods, and Carsonified gave us two tickets to FOWD to give away, so it's triply-worth showing up!

This could very well be the greatest presentation ever. Not just at Refresh DC, but in the history of presentations. Ever.
