The tried and true way to “light up” your EE site.
Throughout this video tutorial I guide you step-by-step on how to build effective and easy-to-manage EE templates.
My preferred method of working is to always begin with fully coded static templates. I simply drop them into EE and then slowly “light up” the template using EE code. You see this happen already in the first episode of the EE how-to series, as well as in almost every episode. After creating more than two dozen ExpressionEngine websites, I’ve found this to be the most reliable and efficient development method.
