Ask HN: What is your CSS framework of choice?

This page summarizes the projects mentioned and recommended in the original post on news.ycombinator.com

Our great sponsors
  • InfluxDB - Power Real-Time Data Analytics at Scale
  • WorkOS - The modern identity platform for B2B SaaS
  • SaaSHub - Software Alternatives and Reviews
  • Foundation

    The most advanced responsive front-end framework in the world. Quickly create prototypes and production code for sites that work on any kind of device.

  • For example, my current framework of choice is Bulma https://github.com/jgthms/bulma.

    Why? - it is easy, simple to learn and stable. It gives you a solid basic structure and responsiveness as well as looking modern and being easy to customize.

    Long time ago I was using https://github.com/twbs/bootstrap for work primarily and https://github.com/foundation/foundation-sites for side projects. Nowadays I use Bulma for everything

    p.s. I still don't get the hype around https://github.com/tailwindlabs/tailwindcss ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

    CSS Boilerplate / Starter Kit: Collection of best-practice CSS selectors

  • I rarely use any of the popular CSS frameworks. Unless you are making a small(ish) website where the styling is not important, it is actually more work to change an existing frameworks than to just use CSS yourself.

    But what I do use sometimes is a CSS reset like https://github.com/necolas/normalize.css

    And what I also use is this CSS boilerplate: https://github.com/frontaid/natural-selection (Disclaimer: I created it because I wanted to avoid the repetitive work of writing out all the selectors).

  • InfluxDB

    Power Real-Time Data Analytics at Scale. Get real-time insights from all types of time series data with InfluxDB. Ingest, query, and analyze billions of data points in real-time with unbounded cardinality.
