Hi, I'm Joseph Caserto, a graphic designer and educator.
If you're a graphic designer, programmer, coder, student, or anyone who wants to learn the basics of creating good-looking websites, mobile application software, or other digital media, you can start by understanding the foundations of design. In this tutorial, we'll look at typography, and I'll explain what it means when type is measured in ems.
You'll discover that ems existed for centuries before any programming language like HTML.
