Overview

Embark on a nostalgic journey through the wild and creative landscape of early 2000s web development in this JSConf EU 2017 talk. Explore the era when teenage developers, lacking resources like StackOverflow, relied on collaboration and mutual inspiration to craft unique personal websites. Discover the unconventional use of CSS techniques such as 'filter: dropshadow', quirky JavaScript snippets, and 8-pixel fonts that defined the aesthetic of that time. Gain insight into the raw, rule-breaking creativity that shaped the internet before the advent of standardized practices, and reflect on how this spirit of experimentation can still inspire modern web design.
