Sander left her namesake label behind in 2004 due to reported disagreements with its then owner Prada Group. The former high-fashion designer rose to fame in the Nineties when a sleek minimal approach was all the rage in fashion. So Im timeless for the moment, Sander told the fashion news site. Since Im very, very impressed with what we can do and what Uniqlo can do, I decided to go on. With two of her +J collections having nearly sold out at retail, and Fall 2010 already in the works, the minimalist German designer opted to extend her relationship with what is often thought of as Japanese Gap’s parent company, Fast Retailing Co. Since MJML is an open-source framework, you can hop over to Github to check out all of the code behind the engine.Minimalists rejoice: Jil Sander has signed on to continue her line with Japanese store, Uniqlo, reports WWD. This makes it easy to extend and reuse high-level components. The MJML engine was built in React.js for its high composability and the way it handles components. The MJML engine then takes care of rendering the sections as expected and in an responsive way. MJML is an engine transpiling -style markup language into responsive email HTML with nested tables and inline CSS.Įssentially, the MJML engine reads what the sections of the email are and what they should look like. In time, MJML components will build and innovate off one another. Say you need a component that’ll display pictures of cats and cat names in a neat, clean layout, just build ! Our goal is for you, the community to own MJML. In addition to quickly plugging in components natively included in MJML, you can also build your own. Want to include an article in your email? All you have to do is to specify a link to an image, a title, a description and a link to the article as attributes in your tag. By using MJML components, you will be able to focus on the content rather than on the tricky - and annoying - part of the style. From low-level components such as to higher-level components like, there’s a component for that. Write high-level code through extensible and reusable components. Email clients update their specs and requirements regularly, but we geek about that stuff - we’ll stay on top of it so you can spend less time reading up on latest email client updates and more time coding. Your MJML will always be up-to-date and responsive. Building a responsive email is super easy with tags such as and. Say goodbye to endless HTML table nesting or email client specific CSS. Get your speed and productivity boosted with MJML’s semantic syntax. MJML rolls up all of what the Mailjet Developer team has learned about HTML email design over the past few years and abstracts the whole layer of complexity related to responsive email design. And that’s how MJML was born.Īfter learning so much from our users, we wanted to give back to the community by sharing this open-source framework to make responsive email easier and redefine the coding experience once and for all. The team started by creating a new markup language that would abstract the complexity of responsive HTML and automatically generate it. This means that finding a way to code responsive email easily and quickly is pretty important. Having been knee deep in email for five years, the Mailjet team saw two things: a) email HTML is antiquated and not developer friendly b) a growing trend of email being viewed on mobile and tablet and the number of screens is only increasing. MJML was created in early 2015 by a team of Mailjet developers while they were working on Passport, Mailjet’s drag-and-drop interface for creating responsive emails. Why we set out to tackle the challenge of coding responsive email Guess what happens if that’s where you added your CSS? Yes, it’s removed.īottom line is, responsive email is hard and it’s even harder to use HTML to guarantee beautiful, user-friendly email that displays exactly the way you want no matter where it lands. Gmail for example, removes the entire header section of your email’s HTML. Each client renders HTML in its own way and some don’t even support HTML, which can cause delivery issues. The tricky thing is though, that HTML for email is very different from the HTML you might have come to know (and perhaps love) from the web. That’s why responsive email design is so important. With all of these variables of where your email could land, it can be stressful to create a one-size-fits-all email design. On top of that, there are a lot of email clients out there. Beyond the third screen (mobile), we’re moving onto smart watches and possibly even VR devices! According to Litmus, mobile now represents no less than 50% of where email is read. These days, we email everywhere - standing up, sitting down, sleeping.and on a ton of devices too. People get attached to dishes, like the roasted polenta lasagna and the fire-grilled Lakeside organic artichokes, and if we try to change up the menu they get upset.” But we have a huge menu - and a lot of regulars. “Salads are hugely popular,” points out restaurant manager Robin Anderson, “and salmon salad is probably our most popular lunch dish, along with the stir-fried vegetables. They go right into an ice-water bath to clean them and then onto the plate.” His closest farm is about a mile from the restaurant, with other parcels throughout Watsonville and from Los Gatos and Aptos to Moss Landing and Aromas. “The greens in our salads never see a plastic bag. “We harvest our salad greens and other veggies in the morning, bring them to the restaurant and serve them that day,” he says. There are other traditional Mexican dishes on the menu, too, like chiles rellenos and tostadas, but honestly - it’s a crime if you don’t order the seafood.Ĥ58 Main St. The seafood absorbed the diablo sauce just enough so the delicate taste and texture came through with a satisfying bit of heat and the complex smoky, spicy flavor of the sauce. But on my most recent visit, it was cold and gloomy outside, so when we saw the steaming hot molcajete head past us, overflowing with shrimp, heads-on prawns, mussels, calamari, octopus and scallops in a deeply flavorful diablo sauce, we ordered one to split. Of course, there’s plenty of fresh lime juice and pepper plus a secret condiment Martinez won’t disclose. I usually start with the mixed seafood ceviche with its shrimp, fish, scallops and octopus. Slow-action rods and monofilament line tend to work much better with circle hooks than fast-action rods and braided line. Part of using a circle hook to its fullest advantage also depends on using the proper gear. If you yank on the rod before this happens, you’ll pull the hook straight out of the fish’s mouth and the tip will never gain purchase. Then the tip catches and rotates the hook as it seats securely in place. The curved tip slides right across the inside of the fish’s mouth until reaching the corner of the jaw. This change in hook-setting tactics is necessary due to the way a circle hook works. You may want to smoothly drop the rod tip back toward the fish, for example, to make sure tension comes into the line slowly instead of suddenly. If a fish grabs it and darts off, on the other hand, do whatever is necessary with the gear being used to make sure the application of pressure is as slow as possible. If a fish grabs a bait and sits there, you need to slowly take in line to increase the pressure. The more gradual and slower the increase in tension, the more likely you’ll get a good hookset. Instead, you need to wait until the fish begins to swim off with the bait and hook in its mouth, then gradually apply pressure. Try that with a circle hook on the end of your line, and you’ll yank the hook right out of the fish’s mouth. With a J-hook, when a fish bites, a traditional highly forceful hookset is the norm to drive the hook home. The biggest difference between using circle hooks and J-hooks comes at the strike. But – and this is a big but – if you try to fish them in the same way as J-hooks your hookup ratio will plummet. In many cases, the use of circle hooks also increases the ratio of strikes to solid hookups. This can vary widely by species, but the use of non-offset (meaning the point is in line with the shank) circle hooks when fishing with bait has been shown to reduce deep-hooking incidents by up to four times with species such as striped bass and billfish, and by half with walleye. In fact, circle hooks are now legally mandated in some fisheries due to the reduction in deep hookings often seen with their use. That’s because they’re effective at hooking fish in the corner of the mouth, where release is easier, rather than deep in the throat or – even worse – in the gut. Characterized by their round, circular shape with a hook point that points back toward the shank, circle hooks are highly effective, simple to use and, in many cases, better for the fish. All items are sourced, acquired, stocked, picked, packaged, and shipped by me.Choosing the right style of hook is a critical aspect of a successful fishing outing, and these days, a circle hook is one of the best options for fishing live bait. It's ALL ABOUT THE BAIT.Īll merchandise sold by All About The Bait is stocked here in Key West. It comes down to one thing and one thing only that will determine if you are "catching" or "fishing". The boat you ride, the rods and reels you use, the brand name clothes you wear, make no difference to the fish.
