mvp VS modern-normalize

Buy a bootstrap theme, they're cheap and they offer a lot out of the box. Better solution than bare tailwind, which actually requires you to know how to design. I used tailwind on my personal website, result was good but I had to do a lot more than if I used a bootstrap theme.

You make your app ui work within the boundaries of your bootstrap theme and you're good for 96% of the design stuff.

It's amazing, you drop it and you have a theme based on the html only. I use this mostly for prototyping though

Like the previous submitter ( https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=30885700 April 2022 ) I found clasless.css while investigating semantic html-oriented css libraries and this one stood out to me as having a good balance. I'm not ideologically opposed to using classes, but using them for every bit of styling seems off and I'd rather see good default styles for regular semantically structured html. For example, classless.css uses the "card" class for cards which don't have a clear analog in among standard html tags: https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/HTML/Element

On a side note, you can throw something like water.css , tacit, or MVP.css for quick and easy styling and you just focus on the HTML.

Since this tool was just for testing, I wanted a simple CSS solution so that I didn't have to focus on styling. I went with MVP.css and Tailwind for small tweaks. It worked really well, but in the future, I'd like to take a look at Pico.css, which I just learned about from this Fireship video.

You could pay a front end dev to use a preexisting template.

Or, you could Google “classless CSS”, if you’re OK writing some HTML.

I made a plug and play CSS library here for those that don’t want to write CSS: https://github.com/andybrewer/mvp

Tailwind Preflight is amazing - built on top of modern-normalize, Preflight resets the default inconsistent styles across modern browsers. In addition to modern-normalize, Preflight:

I think this is the same category as https://github.com/sindresorhus/modern-normalize

`modern-normalized.css` can be for MVP too. Honestly few < 100 lines on top of normalized one isn't that much work.

You should inspect the elements to find out where the margins around the nav bar are coming from. I assume you never zeroed the margins on the body, but it's good practice to inspect your properties to find out for yourself where things are coming from. To fix, you can probably add body {margin: 0;} to your CSS. An even better way would be to load a modern reset before your styles, something like modern normalize.

Tailwind CSS comes with "an opinionated set of base styles" called Preflight. A helpful CSS reset built on top of modern-normalize.

You know this exists right ?

I recently switched from normalize.css to a "modern" fork https://github.com/sindresorhus/modern-normalize
