A CSS Framework


Picture:Clock Published on August 5th, 2007 in CSS, Web

I just found a nice CSS framework here. I have not thoroughly tested it out, yet, but this should be extremely useful, since every developer starts to use some kind of CSS sheet with default stuff in it, so they don’t have to reinvent the wheel each time. The Blueprint framework is a much more ambitious project though. There are many people involved, to make it as bug-free and generic as possible. So that every project, no matter how exotic the requirements are, can benefit from a fast start by using the Blueprint framework. Here are the features according to the Blueprint website:

  • An easily customizable grid
  • Sensible typography
  • A baseline (like the background here)
  • Perfected CSS reset
  • A stylesheet for printing
  • No bloat of any kind

Update: Darren has created a nice guide on how to start working with Blueprint. Check out the guide over here.

    I not so long ago write a guide to using Blueprint for a simple web page. It was a lot easier and the default appearance is really quite nice. It’s definitely worth a look.
    You can see the guide on my site if you wish.
