Today, we will focus on a new framework called Spectre. It is lightweight, modern, responsive and mobile friendly. It weighs around 6.8kb when served minified and gzipped. Besides the basic grid system, it also has a lot of other useful various components like tabs, modals and cards etc.
I’ve been trying to steer clear of CSS frameworks, but this one looks pretty good, and fairly lightweight too. I especially like the stylish form elements, they’re very dapper.
My reply is usually the same: React.js, Ember and so on, they’re all a blip in the history of the web. They won’t be here in 10 years. Something else will be. I’m not too interested on these talks because they’re tied to a point in time, and I’m interested in what lasts. In my head, it’s akin to fashion vs style.
I’d also like to know more about React and why it receives so much attention, so I’m glad someone of Remy’s stature has asked this question. I’m hoping that there’ll be some good follow-up posts and discussions.
Bootstrap has become a very popular tool in front-end projects over the years, and it can have huge benefits. However, if your team has a front-end developer on board, I would argue you may be better off without Bootstrap. In some instances, it can do more harm than good.

Another CSS framework, this one has a 24 point grid system, rather than the more common 12 point. Scores bonus points for having a class named “MEGA-UHD”. Other than that, looks like standard fare.
There are plenty of amazing front end frameworks already, such as, Bootstrap and Foundation. If you’re looking for something feature rich with loads of components, those are both great choices.
However, if you’re looking for something in between normalize.css and a full blown framework, meet Cutestrap. Cutestrap is only 8kb of CSS.
Looks like a nice lightweight framework. I like the simple grid approach and styling of form elements.

I’ve been trying to break free from using CSS frameworks, but this one actually looks pretty nice — I love the simple flexbox grid system. GitHub repo here.
Talking of grids, I was actually looking for a minimal grid the other day when I came across Toast. I didn’t end-up using it, I couldn’t handle all the dashes, but I thought it was worth bookmarking.
In case you’re wondering, I opted to use Bootstrap-Grid-Only — the classes are familiar and it does the job.
