#Meeting Notes 12-02-2013
- Weekend Recap
- OOP baseline for WP theme Friday night & Sunday
- Design Stuff yay
- Should we have a vertical and horizontal nav? Should we have a secondary navigation bar?
- Yes, one nav deep
- Specific vs unspecific content
- Main nav is straight text, not accordion
- Keep secondary nav on page
- Template parts/modules - can create a links template
- Quick links study - putting content at the top
- Instructions on how to hide it!
- Should we have an option for sidebar to fall in line?
- JQuery does do the sidebar animations, even pretty far back in IE
- Transition from theme customizer option to comment in/out
- IE8 Implementation
- Percentage of users: 35% of IE users are on IE8 (15-20% of internet)
- Should we ignore this? Same % of people that are using WP...
- Respond.js, CSS Pie (?) to fake it at first, but this makes it heavy
- Preference: Mobile first strategy (constrained width single column layout)
- Give developers a head start with a vanilla theme, supporting IE8 is too much (you can always do it yourself if you want to)
- Modernizr/Media Queries
- If IE8 display warning/update, also test media query support and add class to wrapper div that constrains the width to ~600px
- "Leading the Trend"
- Supporting best practices in speed, OOP, design, etc
- Josh on performance: "I have an old phone, it's not even 3G, it can't be slow"
- Think about global/internet implications as well
- Minimize use of JQuery as well for page load
- Sping theme on our servers: 80/100 Google Page Speed goal for mobile and desktop (under 250ms response time)
- Tangent about support! Woo!
- Sassquatch in use/launched in the real world!
