Rapid Templating: “Designing in the Browser” with Sass, Compass, and Serve

February 2, 2013 By Jonathan Jeter Leave a Comment

by Nathan Smith at HTML5 Texas in Austin, TX (Deck)

Have you ever found yourself needing to build static front-end templates, either as part of a larger project or as a way to communicate the nuances of responsive design to a client? I think we can all agree that just doing flat HTML leaves us wanting for more templating power.

But, using a dynamic language (PHP, Ruby, etc) typically means that it’s tougher to hand off to a client, who may (not) have a local development environment. That’s where Serve helps bridge the gap. It lets you play with the “”V”” of Rails MVC, but also export flat HTML for easy distribution.
