PBS 185 of X: Customising Bootstrap 5 with Sass

This final instalment of Sass lays a strong foundation for our return to developing statically generated websites with Jekyll. We learn how to deeply customise and integrate Bootstrap into our own styles. As is often the case, Bart starts by describing the different techniques that can be used to customise Bootstrap with Sass, and then ties it all together with a worked example. We now have the tools to use Bootstrap, even if our website uses a content management system like WordPress. You can find Bart's fabulous tutorial shownotes and the audio podcast at pbs.bartificer.net.

PBS 184b of X: Sass Basics

This week, Bart and I recorded the second half of Programming By Stealth installment 184. The first half covered the Sass basics, and in this half, we get to learn through a worked example how to write in Sass, which compiles to regular old CSS. He created a little web page with some wise and humorous quotes from notable people in history, and used everything we learned in the first half to style the page. As I told Bart at the end, it's great that he teaches us the foundation of these tools, but it's equally great to have a worked example where we can see theory in action, and reference these examples in the future. You can find Bart's fabulous tutorial shownotes for both Part A and Part B at pbs.bartificer.net.

PBS 184a of X: Sass Basics

In our most recent installment, Bart taught us how to use CSS "variables" (custom properties) to customize Bootstrap to make your pages not look like every other Bootstrap page on the Internet. He explained at the end that you can take all of this quite a bit further if you learn how to use Sass (Syntactically Awesome Style Sheets). Sass is a preprocessor for CSS, which means it creates "normal" CSS but allows you a lot more flexibility in how to create that CSS. For example, you can even create lists and maps and loop over them just like a proper programming language. We get Sass for free with Jekyll so why not take advantage of it? There's a lot to learn about Sass, so we broke this topic up into two parts, but even this first "half" is a mammoth episode. Nothing is a hard lift, but there's a lot to lift! You can find Bart's fabulous tutorial shownotes for both Part A and Part B and the audio podcast for Part A at pbs.bartificer.net. As Bart says at the very end, Part B comes with a "health warning" as it hasn't yet been proofread!

PBS 183 of X: Customising Bootstrap with CSS 'Variables'

In our previous installment, Bart taught us how to use CSS "Variables" to style our web pages and web apps. In this installment, he takes it up a notch by showing us how to start with a Bootstrap-enabled page, and still customize the colors, fonts, and more with CSS "Variables". You can find Bart's fabulous tutorial shownotes and the audio podcast at pbs.bartificer.net.

PBS 182 of X: CSS 'Variables'

In this very fun installment of Programming By Stealth, Bart teaches us how to use CSS “variables”, which aren’t actually variables (they’re custom properties). These non-variables allow you to take advantage of Bootstrap to style web pages, but make the look and feel all your own. Bart outdid himself on the shownotes, the examples, and the challenge looks super fun. You can find Bart's fabulous tutorial shownotes and the audio podcast at pbs.bartificer.net.

PBS Tidbit 18 — A Real-World Jekyll Example

Bart taught us about creating static sites with Jekyll and even how to create custom layouts using Bootstrap 5. We learned about Markdown files with YAML front matter and more. In this Tidbit, Bart walks us through how he used everything he learned and taught us to migrate his Let's Talk website from WordPress to Jekyll hosted on GitHub Pages. It's a fun episode because we learn what worked well, what slipped through the cracks, and what he forgot to do. He built up a lot of technical debt on Let's Talk with his Let's Talk Apple and Let's Talk Photography podcast posts, so he highly encourages you to fork the site and create pull requests to help him clean up the older posts. You can see how many posts need cleanup (mostly adding contributors) at lets-talk.ie/temp-episodes-to-review.html You can find Bart's fabulous tutorial shownotes and the audio podcast at pbs.bartificer.net.

PBS Tidbit 17a — Simplifying Developer Setups with Docker

This very special episode of Programming By Stealth is a Tidbit written and taught by the lovely Helma van der Linden. Bart has wanted to understand Docker better, and Helma has some great use cases for how to use them for developer setups so it was a good opportunity for Bart to learn from Helma. The material is quite long, so the podcast was recorded in two segments, Tidbit 17a and b. Tidbit b will be along shortly, and picks up and the heading entitled "Reusing the Docker image".
