Over the next few weeks, I’m going to share some of the things that I’ve learned while designing and developing Inspired Guides, starting today with using HTML entities as separators in breadcrumb navigation.
I’m Andy Clarke, a product and website designer. My work blends art direction, branding, and editorial to help people improve their products and websites. I’ve written books about website design, given talks, and delivered design workshops worldwide.
