Posted by on Sunday, December 27th, 2009 at 9:36 pm.

Last week, we wrote about the first part of our Essential Web Designers Resources of 2009. We highlighted many of the web design tutorials, resources, guidance and videos we’ve distributed during the past twelve months for Web Designers using the Adobe Suite of design applications.

Continuing on, we turn to front-end web development, taking a look in particular at CSS, HTML, jQuery and PHP. Regardless of whether or not you’re a beginner or expert when it comes to ‘coding up’ a web design, throughout our blogs and videos we’ve offered advice to refine your expertise..

CSS

Not only have we offered guidance on CSS Optimisation and wrote about our favourite CSS Resources, we’ve also took an in-depth look at CSS3 throughout the year.
