Episode 33 - Codepen, CSS Tricks and Other Nerdery with Chris Coyier

Season 1

Chris Coyier needs no introduction and it was a pleasure to have him on the show. Being a front end engineer as well we were able to chat about CSS and front end technologies, product development and running a profitable business, virtual assistants and of course getting into the nitty-gritty of Codepen. I felt like we could have talked for hours on this one but alas it has to come to an end
