Roundup // Web design

Roundup No. 1 & I won’t weave you an entirely unrelated tale about goats or my offspring’s connection with a domesticated chicken before I give you the recipe.

These are my top tools that I use on nearly every single web development & design project.

There are truly countless reasons I love working in Squarespace, but my absolute number one is being able to hand off gorgeous, functional sites to clients that they can manage themselves without feeling like they are handcuffed to a developer until the end of time.

Squarespace ID finder is a Google Chrome extension that allows you to quickly find the ids of collections, sections, and blocks on your Squarespace page while working on css without digging through mountains of code. A dream, this one.

Amazing source of unique or handwritten style fonts. Business licenses and web-ready fonts make CM perfect for client projects.

My go-to for social media, collateral, newsletter, and client template designs; its user-friendly design makes it ideal for handing off templates for clients to use.

Handbrake is an open source video transcoder, essential for compressing videos for quick-loading sites.

Compress png, jpeg, and other image files for quick-loading sites.
