FRONTEND QUESTIONS

What Is Frontend Development?

Frontend development utilises HTML, CSS and JavaScript to provide the output your users interact with on your website or web application.

What Is A Prototype?

Some solutions require prototypes, which are a preliminary version of your solution. At Absolute our designers can work with you to create interactive prototypes, immersing you in your solution before any development takes place. This allows us to work together to reach the right solution for you.

What Is jQuery?

jQuery is a cross-platform JavaScript library. This library is often used to assist with event handling and animation.

What Is A CSS Preprocessor?

You may have heard of CSS referred to by another name such as SASS, LESS, Stylus or PostCSS. These are preprocessors, which are unique syntaxes that add additional features that don’t exist in CSS. These are compiled into pure CSS, which is then served as part of your solution.

What Information And Data Can I Take From My Existing Site?

We can help migrate your key content, such as existing products, categories, customers and orders.

What Is Mobile First?

Mobile first is a design / development approach considering smaller resolutions first and then adding additional features as the available space increases. By considering smaller resolutions first we can make sure you’re users are getting the core features across platforms and devices.
