Here is a presentation I gave at the Women Who Code frontend meetup in Austin, Texas.

CSS-in-JS in React.js, using Material UI

I discovered the React.js Material UI library while building applications with React.js, and it is very handy for creating consistent look across all your UI elements. Material UI and MUI libraries lean heavily on CSS-in-JS, a technique where CSS styles are described in Javascript and passed into React.js components. The more I delved into it, the more I discovered how many different ways there are to do it. This presentation hopefully explains some basics.
