Martian crew in expansion 🚀

Once a Martian, forever a Martian
We're abducting once-Martians! This week, we've started working with Emilio, the first and only intern we've had in the company, and his business partners. After his internship, Emilio went back to his studies, but we knew we'd work together again someday, and so did he, as stated in his farewell post, An internship out of this world, where he explained his experience on Mars. We're so happy that moment has arrived. Welcome (back) Emilio, and company!

How to make the most of a development bootcamp

Since the company was founded back in 2014, we have been collaborating with several bootcamps: we taught and mentored there, we gave keynotes, we co-organised events, we created joint content, they came in bulk to our Startup Grind events and we even hired people that completed those development bootcamps. From this experience, we can give you some tips to make the most of your training in any of them.

The state of CSS 2020
Forget everything you know about CSS. Or at least, be ready to reconsider a lot of it. If you've been writing CSS for over a decade, CSS in 2020 looks nothing like what you were used to. The State of CSS Survey presents out the data, highlights the trends, and hopefully guides you through another eventful year of CSS!  Read more here.
