Or if you need something smaller, simpler and more modular: purecss.io

(Yes it's weird that they called a framework "pure" css, but it's been a solid go to for a long time)

Serious question how is it these days? What is it used for mostly?

I'm a big fan of Web Awesome. It can scale from just a CSS starter like Pico all the way to a full component library, depending on what you need.

Then I'd just use bootstrap though coz who cares

Some (many) people find it easier to learn a small number of predefined class names that accomplish what they want without having to know hundreds of different CSS incantations when they're just trying to make a simple site.

Sorta like how people use a command-line instead of just writing the code themselves.

Honestly was thinking about using jQuery + UI. For a really simple SPA just for fun.

Never really used apart of being forced for money.

Pico CSS looks like it focuses mainly on forms. The documentation is incomplete. I can see images on an example page, but the documentation doesn't mention which options are available.

I am primarily an embedded software engineer. However every now and again I have to write small web apps, having a CSS framework allows me to style it with pre-made classes saving me a boatload of work and learning and having the result look good.

I understand that restaurants allow you to eat without cooking. But what does a CSS framework save you? You still have to write stuff to get the design you want, and you still have to come up with the design. Feel free to explain rather than drop another analogy...

Pretty much all WordPress sites still use it and that's a CMS that runs almost 40% of online sites.

The vast majority of (smaller) websites that I see still use it, I'd say it's very much alive

jQuery 4. 20 years later..

I have some old sites that use minimal JavaScript that I never plan on moving to a modern framework. Probably should upgrade them though lol.

I'm currently looking for an alternative for a website I'm redeveloping . What are your cons against pico?

From your post it sounds like it is more for small sites. Could it become problematic to use it in a medium sized site?

I feel like very few people must be using jQuery nowadays, but I suppose this is good news for those who still are.

What even is a restaurant? A place with a menu? I don't understand why people go to those. I suggest cooking at home.

Bulma.

That’s incredible !!!  🤯🤯🤯

What exactly is a CSS framework? Something which supplies a bunch of CSS classes with predefined styles?

I don't really see the benefit of those so can't actually help. I guess this is a suggestion to not bother with one :P

I like it! And an impressive lack of javascript, too! :D At first I just assumed that the slide-in animation would be done by some javascript library. The CSS animation is nicely done.

You should look into something like Anubis: https://github.com/TecharoHQ/anubis

Yeah, they sneakily added LSP support a while ago and that brought it up to almost the level of a full-fledged IDE. I've been using it for all my personal projects since then and been quite happy with it. It does have some rough edges here and there, but that it's a lightweight editor that feels native on KDE more than makes up for it IMHO.

I'm not sure to what extent anymore, but theia does depend on some vscode components, at least monaco. it's a little distance but still the same family.

Cool
