In this workshop, you learn how the layout abilities of the Block Grid Editor can accommodate your project.
We will not just use the editor as it comes but we will look into how the layout can be fully customized.
This includes:
Using the same stylesheet within your front-end and back-office.
Making special layout rules for individual Blocks, such as responsive behavior. Writing custom views for Blocks. Making contextual styling, such as different appearances based on Block size and styling adapted to the context of the Block.
If you want to create an immersive editorial experience for your Content Writers, then this will be the workshop for you.
You should be familiar with the most common HTML, CSS features. Knowledge of modern CSS techniques is not required as we will learn some of that as part of this workshop.
As well you must have a good basic understanding of Umbraco Backoffice as we will be making DocumentTypes, Razor Templates, ElementTypes, and DataTypes. Generally taking it for granted that you are aware of how this is done.
And you should have awareness of the Block Grid Editor, as we will jump straight into customizing this.
