Building with Craft CMS
It can often feel like being a Front-End Developer isn't enough to build a great website anymore. Many CMS platforms require a deep understanding just to create a theme and design your content. Alternatively, you're left with hacking away at someone else's theme to get it looking even close to the way you'd like. During this talk, Tim Knight will take you through Craft CMS to show you just how easy it can be and how powerful knowing HTML, CSS, and JavaScript can still make you as a Front-End Designer or Developer. He'll highlight the Twig templating system built into Craft, show how to pull data into templates, and quickly architect features like blogs, user registration, and login forms. Building with Craft will quickly get you comfortable and confident in Craft CMS by seeing real-world examples come to life around a content experience you and your clients are going to love
