The CSS Mindset

CSS is different from other languages, and while that can seem frustrating and leads to a lot of people complaining about it, there's a good reason that it is the way it is. In this episode, I explore how and why it's different, and how we can overcome the frustrations we run into with CSS by adopting the right mindset when authoring our stylesheets.
