## WeaverCast 24 - Death to Spacer Stacks & the CSS Box Model

OK. I don't want all spacer stacks to die but they are definitely overused 99.9% of the time. In this episode, I review a few scenarios where spacer stacks are overused. I then show you how to can accomplish the same thing with features that are built into every single stack… Margins! I then do a full review of the CSS Box model: padding, borders and margins. We show real world examples on how to use theme settings to your advantage.
