    List of awesome CSS frameworks in 2024

  • 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.

  • open-props

    CSS custom properties to help accelerate adaptive and consistent design.

  • What kind of bugs and quirks are we talking about? There is almost no difference between browsers these days. Vanilla CSS is enough. You can also use it with Open Props to add extra CSS custom properties.

  • 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.

  • normalize.css

    A modern alternative to CSS resets

  • Maybe https://necolas.github.io/normalize.css/ ? Not really a framework, but reading your comments maybe it’s what you’re looking for.

  • Milligram

    A minimalist CSS framework.
