Last active December 23, 2015 05:19
The official nodebot logo implemented purely in CSS. It uses percentages for internal elements so resizing is simply a case of overriding the width/height on the .nodebot class.
.nodebot {
width: 450px;
height: 450px;
background: #f3df49;
position: relative;
}
.nodebot div {
position: absolute;
background: #2e2e2c;
}

LXJS and DRIIFT

LXJS, a perfect blend of ideas and people, inspiration and collaboration, at the same time, in the same place. Choose your own adventure and go and be part of it. We build communities by participating; beauty emerges; the compound of countless interactions.

You'll find a contributor for your project, a bastion for your bugs, a hero for a high-five, and like-minds to mine. We're all there. Come find us.

DRIIFT is going to be there to help.

We'll greet you at the door, put your name in lights and give you a heat map of the bright sparks: the people, places, workshops and parties.
