Danai Nanou talks about CSS: architecture, migrations, and methodologies

The Front End

Danai Nanou is a UI developer specialising in CSS and its architecture.

Originally from Greece, she's lived in the UK for many years, moving from retail into software engineering through a part-time course and a coding bootcamp.


She found her passion in the styling layer of front-end apps, taking on some large scale CSS migrations, implementing the ITCSS methodology to help add some key structure to the code base, and ultimately pursuing a passion for well-structured, maintainable, predicable CSS.


Danai talks about the pitfalls of CSS frameworks, dives into her love of the cascade and how CSS should be embraced not feared.

She also walks us through her personal challenges in leaving an unfulfilling career to move into the world of software engineering and how she leveraged networking to land herself a junior dev role.
