Portrait of Harry Roberts taken at beyond tellerrand in Düsseldorf 2021 by Norman Posselt

Harry is an independent Consultant Web Performance Engineer from the UK. He helps some of the world’s largest and most respected organisations find and fix their site-speed issues.

He is both a Google- and a Cloudinary Media Developer-Expert, and has consulted for clients from the United Nations to the BBC, General Electric to the Financial Times, and a whole host more.

When not doing work-work, he writes, teaches, and speaks about the entire gamut of front-end performance. When not doing work at all, he’s probably out riding his bike.

Talk: Architecting Scalable CSS

Starting a new (particularly big) project is daunting, or at least it should be if you’re doing it right. However, there are a few things you can do in order to guarantee smoother developement, easier maintenance and more natural scalability.

In this talk Harry shows the optimal CSS architecture for building big sites, some handy naming techniques to make code easier to read and work with, some tips and best practices, and other bits and pieces he has picked up in his work at Sky and in building inuit.css.
