dropin-minimal-css VS awesome-css-frameworks

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:

Personally, I like simple.css (https://github.com/kevquirk/simple.css)

I think picocss is the best classless CSS framework, but there a bunch of others:

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].

Here is the list of CSS that work out of the box either with pure HTML, or with minimal amount of classes. Many can be tried in a matter of seconds via unpkg.

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 you’re happy, remove ! Simple. Genius. Wonder why I never thought of it.

Also has a demo page [2] to try it out

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.

Maybe not exactly what you‘re looking for, but you could give https://github.com/vinibiavatti1/TuiCss a try.

I need a minimal CSS framework to use as a basis to extend for a new project. I hate bloated CSS frameworks like Bootstrap and Tailwind. My ideal CSS framework would have SCSS components, well thought defaults to deal with different device sized, a decent user-base, a pre-made darkmode and less than 20KB when minimized. I saw a list of css frameworks here, but none have all my criteria. So appreciate your suggestions.

4. Awesome Css Frameworks

Anything from here would probably suit your needs quite easily: https://github.com/troxler/awesome-css-frameworks

You can have a look at https://github.com/troxler/awesome-css-frameworks which is an extensive collection of CSS frameworks. Have a look at the "Class-less" section to checkout similar projects.

There is also an open PR to add Simple.css to the list: https://github.com/troxler/awesome-css-frameworks/pull/85

In February 2018 I joined Dev.to 😎 and also I found the amazing Awesome CSS Frameworks. I was in love with all the world that existed apart Boostrap.
