Adam Argyle
Adam is a bright, passionate, punk engineer with an adoration for the web who prefers using his skills for best in class UI/UX and empowering those around him. He’s worked at small and large companies, and built an app for pretty much every screen (or voice). He is capable of over-engineering, but spends lots of brain power not to. Loves CSS, loves JS, loves great UX.
Bramus Van Damme
Bramus is a web developer from Belgium. He’s part of the Chrome Developer Relations team at Google, focusing on CSS, Web UI, and DevTools. From the moment he discovered view-source at the age of 14 (way back in 1997), he fell in love with the web and has been tinkering with it ever since.
Before joining Google, Bramus worked as a freelance developer in various frontend and backend roles. For seven years he also was a College Lecturer Web & Mobile, educating undergrad students all about HTML, CSS, and JavaScript — in that order.
John Allsopp
John Allsopp has been working on the Web for nearly 30 years. He's been responsible for innovative developer tools such as Style Master and X-Ray, and his ideas formed the foundation for Typekit, now Adobe Fonts, and the entire concept of Responsive Web Design.
His writing includes several books, including Developing With Web Standards and countless articles and tutorials in print and online publications. He also organises Web Directions.
His "A Dao of Web Design", published in 2000, is cited by Ethan Marcotte as a key influence in the development of his acclaimed 2010 Responsive Web Design, which begins by quoting John in detail, and by Jeremy Keith as "a manifesto for anyone working on the Web".
Ana Rodrigues
Ana works as a front-end developer at tech-for-good agency Hactar. She started coding as a teenager building fan sites, and has been working as a front-end developer for the last 12 years.
Nowadays, Ana spends most of her free time experimenting on her personal blog and is particularly interested in ethics, IndieWeb, sustainability, privacy, and all things CSS.
Chris Coyier
I’m a web designer and developer that tries to help other people get better at those things.
I’m the co-founder of CodePen, a social development environment for web designers and developers. CodePen is a front-end focused IDE in the browser allowing people to write HTML, CSS, JavaScript, and related languages. It’s as much of a community and social network as a coding platform.
Along with Dave Rupert, I’m the co-host of a podcast called ShopTalk, a show about (you guessed it) building websites. We’re over 10 years and 500 episodes strong!
I built CSS-Tricks, a website all about building websites, and ran it for 15 years, from 2007 to 2022, before selling it to DigitalOcean.
I’m big on the power of writing as a way to improve yourself and be successful.
