"I propose a simple set of rules and requirements that dictate how version numbers are assigned and incremented. For this system to work, you first need to declare a public API [...] Once you identify your public API, you communicate changes to it with specific increments to your version number.

Bug fixes not affecting the API increment the patch version, backwards compatible API additions/changes increment the minor version, and backwards incompatible API changes increment the major version."

"Here is a summary of 8 steps any web developer can take to improve their page code"

"Many designers don’t think about the code behind the sites they design [...] The good news is designers don’t need to learn code; they just need to change the way they think."
