Cascading Style Sheet (CSS) is a document format which provides a set of style rules which can then be incorporated in an XHTML or HTML document. It is a means to separate web content from formatting and presentation information.

The Many Faces of Functions in JavaScript - - Bocoup
If you’ve had any contact with JavaScript code, you’re probably very familiar with how to define and call functions, but are you aware of of how many different ways you can define a function? This is a common challenge of writing and maintaining tests in Test262—especially when a new feature comes into contact with any existing function syntax, or extends the function API. It is necessary to assert that new or proposed syntax and APIs are valid, against every existing variant in the language.
CSS3 Animation Cheat Sheet - Justin Aguilar
How it works The CSS3 Animation Cheat Sheet is a set of preset, plug-and-play animations for your web projects. All you need to do is add the stylesheet to your website and apply the premade CSS classes to the elements you want animated. The CSS3 Animation Cheat Sheet uses CSS3 @keyframes and works on all the latest browsers (that's IE 10). Using CSS3 @keyframes, you don't have to worry about positioning the element to accomodate the animations - it will animate into place. Also for users with older browsers, the animated element will be visible and in place, even if the animation doesn't trigger.

LESS - The Dynamic Stylesheet
You might have heard until now of LESS and you might know it has something to do with CSS and styling websites, but I am quite sure that not many people really know what LESS actually is and why is it so special that it got its own name. Unlike CSS, LESS is an open-source dynamic stylesheet language, with its first version being written in Ruby, but replaced by JavaScript later on. LESS is more complex than CSS is, providing variables, nesting, mixins (reusable classes), operators and functions and allows real-time compilation via LESS.js by the browser in use. LESS can run on both client- and server-side and can even be compiled into normal, plain CSS. Using LESS would allow writing CSS in a programming way instead of static, as CSS is by default. However cool and simple this might seem, using LESS is clearly more difficult than using plain CSS, simply because it is built on JavaScript and you have to know a little bit of it in order to use it.
