Stories from the Frontline of Front-End Development!

When two themers first meet, the conversation often starts with common questions about tools, tricks, and themes.

Peek into the minds of professional themers as they discuss and debate their favorite techniques and tools of the trade. Listen as they share best practices discovered the hard way and prompt audience participation via Twitter.
