Hello from the Perth Device Lab
Posted 04.08.2016 @ 1.18AM (Edited 04.08.2016 @ 1.45AM)
Hi there, we've recently opened in Perth and wanted to say hello.
We've converted a spare room in our office into a free-to-use working space for the local community to test web products they're building on a range of devices, simulators and virtual machines or to just come in and use the space to work on their own digital projects.
The hope is to assist the Perth digital community in developing inclusive and accessible websites and apps. Our lab is open to agencies, government departments, start-ups, in-house teams, students, and freelancers... everyone really.
Available is desk space, free wifi, a small library of related texts, a turntable, an eclectic vinyl selection, and a great view of William Street.
You can read a little more about the project here: http://humaan.com/the-perth-device-lab-is-now-open/
Feel free to get in touch an pop in if you're in the area ok?

We launched a little experiment today at Humaan to rid the world of IE8!
*"March 19, 2015 marks a rather depressing milestone: it’s your sixth anniversary with Internet Explorer 8. As upstanding interweb netizens, we feel we have a duty to intervene… it’s time to break up with IE8."*
Hope you like it :)

Flexbox or not?
Posted 02.12.2016 @ 4.21PM
We use a bunch of Flexbox, mainly to solve layout problems you might traditionally rely on javascript for and I find gets us to ie10 pretty well.
For ie9, we don't particularly worry to much about presentation , just function. So for example, if the form submits but looks a bit weird in ie9. thats fine.
WE adding this to <head>
<!--[if IE 9 ]><html class="ie ie9" lang="en"> <![endif]-->
... and we use a parent class of .ie9 to declare styles to accommodate any layout issues in ie9 that the lack of Flexbox support causes.
