Collaboration, the future of CSS, Sass, and the web with Miriam Suzanne

Mechanical Ink Podcast

In this episode of the Mechanical Ink podcast, host Schalk Neethling sits down with Miriam Suzanne, a multifaceted expert in web development, an invited expert to the CSS Working Group, and a founder of OddBird. Our discussion spanned a range of topics, from the historical evolution of the web, the impact of social media and algorithms on creativity, the importance of collaboration, the process of writing a specification, the intricacies of modern CSS, the future of Sass, the challenges of funding open-source and work on web standards, and the exciting future of the web.

We also touch on the potential role of large language models (AI) in web development and the potential role AI can play. We also discuss approaches to writing CSS in the modern web development landscape and how we can play to the strengths of CSS, not be afraid to let go of some control, and embrace the beauty of CSS.

Miriam also shares some exciting upcoming features of CSS, the indie web, and the joy of building for the web in small, close-knit teams. It is a far-reaching, insightful, and inspiring conversation.
