Session: Why CSS Still Matters

CSS is the language that makes the web beautiful. Without it, most of the websites you visit would be unrecognizable — and maybe even unusable!

Understanding how CSS works is critical for anyone who wants to build intuitive interfaces. This session will demystify this important but often-overlooked language. I’ll provide a brief overview of fundamentals before delving into the powerful, fascinating applications of the language, including pure CSS animations and drawings.

**No prior CSS knowledge is necessary**
