Chota VS classless-css

For my past projects, I used a simple CSS framework, Chota, which I override with custom stuff, and at build time everything is compressed to keep only CSS that is used by the HTML. I structure my code to be able to re-use small parts of the style (menu, sections, cards) depending on the project.

Instead of using commonly used frameworks (like Spring Framework) I preffered to use something that is small and doesn't have "magic" in it. So I've chosen Javalin as a simple web framework, added MongoDB client libraries nad jte as template engine. To show that simple and clean looking apps doesn't need any big JS libraries I've selected chota - one of micro CSS frameworks.

Chota is nice, 3kb.

I'm not sure if this comment will be upvoted in this subreddit, but both the most professional, and the easiest, way to accomplish this is to build the form in Vue or React, or even just a bare HTML form and style it if you like with something like chota, and create the rendering using some kind of JavaScript 3d rendering engine like this one.

Chota is a tiny super lightweight, simple to use, lightweight CSS framework where all sets of modules are packed in about 3Kb. It does not require any preprocessors, just add it within your project and start using it. It is very simple to extend due to CSS variables. It comes with plenty of components and utilities, like a magic 12 column grid. It has good semantics, can be switched easily to dark mode, and supports icons out-of-the-box as well. Similar to other lightweight CSS frameworks, remembering different class names is no longer necessary.

I dug through a ton of these for several days before finally deciding to just make my own...

All the lesser known ones tend to not be very extensible or themable beyond basic color changes, and they're a little too extreme about pure semantic HTML.

This guy has a really good roundup with last commit and GitHub stars info:

Currently working on getting some issues with their test case ironed out to get mine (https://eternityforest.github.io/barrel.css/) included.

No style attributes. You just use HTML markup and use a classless CSS framework to take care of making it look nice. My favorite is Marx, but there are others you can find here: https://github.com/dbohdan/classless-css

Water.css, MVP.css, sakura, and Tacit are among the most popular.

Literally as easy as:

And before you say I should do that myself, again, if you want your work to be comfortable to read for the world, the bare minimum involves legibility.

Not op but classless CSS frameworks are awesome. The idea is to keep it simple and use the appropriate HTML tags where there were generally meant to go, and the framework will theme the page to improve usability and add flair. I've developed some great little sites with no classes at all!

Obviously this approach has its limits, but it works well for proof-of-concept sites or sites that don't need to be very complex or dynamic. Just a sensible font size, nicer looking form elements, etc.

I have used water.css, simple.css and Tufte.css and all of them are great.

Create a folder inside /output called assets. Move the stylesheet.css inside. You can also use an external css like bootstrap, or use a single file css. There is even a css based on Nier!
