      Every Layout has helped thousands of developers and companies simplify CSS layout in their projects
      Employing algorithmic layout design means doing away with @media breakpoints, “magic numbers”, and other hacks, to create context-independent layout components.
Your future design systems will be more consistent, terser in code, and more malleable in the hands of your users and their devices. Every Layout is now in its 3rd edition and has helped some of the largest companies in the world achieve exactly this.

            I can’t recommend Every Layout enough. Fantasic for all of the layouts you can use in your projects obviously, but also for how much you’ll learn about flexbox, and CSS in general.

            CSS is one of the few things I’m comfortable with, but I’m still learning A TON reading Every Layout. Such a great resource!

            Even two years later, Every Layout is still the best resource for learning common, intrinsic layout patterns. It’s revolutionized our design system at the BBC. I’m always sharing it with colleagues who want more experience with CSS.

            This is dev love in form of a resource guide and you’d do well in reviewing it and sharing it. Yes. AGAIN. Thank you Heydon and Andy for this piece of niche art.

            Every Layout is a fantastic resource, a great reference, and also has really helped me understand the structure and styling decisions that go into building websites.

            Every Layout has fantastic free content, but the full price for all the materials (book, site, components) has had absurdly high ROI for me. I spent less than an hour’s consulting wages, and it’s been transformative - a gift that keeps giving. Highest possible recommendation

            Started web development in 1997 and approached the same problems with CSS with updated solutions over the years. Even after all this time references like Every Layout from Andy and Heydon are invaluable materials for re-reading and improving.
          
        
        
       
    
  
  
    
      
        Best practices do work
        Some influential people have framed CSS as a flawed technology. They’ve encouraged CSS authors to brute force layout in ways that don’t make the most of CSS’s features.
With our introductory chapters, the “rudiments”, we catch you up on just how smart and elegant modern CSS can be. What you learn in these chapters is then applied to 12 specially designed, modular layout solutions, documented with customizable code generators and implemented as handy custom elements.
We teach you best practices that are guaranteed to make you a better, well-rounded CSS programmer, whether you are a full-stack developer, a designer, a back-end developer or even a ${yourJobTitleHere}.
