Pico CSS v2 comes with 380 manually crafted colors
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:
https://github.com/dbohdan/classless-css
Currently working on getting some issues with their test case ironed out to get mine (https://eternityforest.github.io/barrel.css/) included.

Elixir for Cynical Curmudgeons
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.

I wish people would stop insisting that Git branches are nothing but refs
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.

The Future (and the Past) of the Web Is Server Side Rendering
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.

Using Nanoc, a Static Site Generator
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!

I hate CSS: how can I build UIs?
Agreed, find a class-less framework to start, so that you focus on just the HTML, semantic structure first. Here's a couple of lists of such frameworks:

https://github.com/dohliam/dropin-minimal-css
Personally, I like simple.css (https://github.com/kevquirk/simple.css)

Why everybody speaks only about Tailwind, what happened to Boo0strap?
I think picocss is the best classless CSS framework, but there a bunch of others:

Show HN: Lissom.CSS, a classless, minimalist, and themeable CSS library
Nice work! I like that you have included support for prefers-color-scheme, which is one of the more highly-requested features for these kinds of frameworks.
I've added Lissom to the big list of minimal CSS frameworks [0] which aims to collect all of these types of projects (more or less) in one place for ease of discoverability and comparison. You can preview the CSS on some HTML5 boilerplate here [1].

MVP.css β Minimalist stylesheet for HTML elements
Makes it just so easy to switch and select. Embed in your html page, select an item from the drop down and see what it does to the page, when youβre happy, remove ! Simple. Genius. Wonder why I never thought of it.
Also has a demo page [2] to try it out

Pico CSS Framework
This is great! I've added it to this big list[0] of classless/minimal CSS frameworks (100+ frameworks) to make it easier to compare to other similar projects.
For those interested in Pico (which is already on the list), you can preview it on some boilerplate HTML here[1] or use the Javascript bookmarklet[2] to preview how it would look on any arbitrary page, which can be helpful for prototyping a new site.
