Notes from Wes Bos's talk on web tooling

Notes from @wesbos's talk:

Our frontend workflow is changing quickly and for good reasons. Tooling for tooling sake is a waste, but don't overlook the utility of modern dev tooling workflows - these are great, useful tools that are letting us improve our workflows in standards-based, forward-looking ways.

Trend: Frontend developers are moving to using package managers (npm) for client-side code (CSS and JS), much like we have been for managing our build tooling itself. I can attest to this being hugely helpful at Filament Group on client-side code, especially now that so many of our projects are on npm (https://www.npmjs.com/~filamentgroup ).

Yay, another talk that recommends loadCSS for performance. Nice to hear :)
