Introduction of grunt to our websites

As an ongoing commitment to my clients and offering the best possible service, I constantly tune and improve on my skills.

One of my latest developments has been to learn the LESS language, a server side preprocessing tool for CSS.

LESS allows me to develop websites much faster by using custom variables for things like colours, font faces and much more.

Whilst LESS is not particularly new in the industry, I never used it in the past because of a bug which meant that your pages would flash with no styling for a split second. But more recently I have come across Grunt.

Grunt allows us to use preprocessors like SASS and LESS to develop websites but processes and minifies the code so that it loads much faster in your browser.

Nifty stuff!
