Face it: We can’t have gorgeous ebooks without Cascading Style Sheets. The elements that give an ebook flair and pizazz — fonts, colors, borders, and more — come from utilizing CSS effectively. However, CSS support depends on a number of factors: the format you’re creating (EPUB vs. Kindle), the platforms you’re targeting (eReaders vs. apps), and how well you implemented your CSS toward your overall HTML markup. This workshop will reveal practical use cases for designing an ebook with CSS. It will explore the integral functions of effective cascading styles for both reflowable and fixed-layout ebooks, as well address media queries for the Amazon Kindle. Think of it as as an intense deep dive in CSS for beginners and a welcome refresher for advanced developers.
