Too Long; Didn't Read
The purpose of this article is to give a helping hand to web-dev that finds themselves having to both design and code a project. It is in no way an “All you need to know” kind of thing, and I really encourage everyone to read The Non-Designer’s Design Book by Robin Williams which is a great resource to learn more than just some basics. The way we’ll go through each principle is fairly simple, the topic will be explained, and example shown, and a nice snippet will be provided so it's clear how to apply it.
