It's pleasant to the eyes but :

- "Free" is not the kind of license I trust (there's a guy talking about his stealed code on HN this sunday, just check)

- Not responsive ? Come on we're in 2012

- It would be better if it was hosted on github (or bitbucket). So everyone could improve it (but again what's the license ?) There's a lot of competition in this field and at this stage I don't see any valid reason to use this one, rather than say Bootstrap, Foundation or Skeleton.

I think they don't mean to give it away free in the long run. They did it for redactor[1] too. (I think it is the full featured awesome and simple WYSIWYG editor)

It's totally upto the developer to decide upon on the licence. There are lot of projects under FREE, but not open sourced.

I emailed the authors about a week ago and Alex clarified that free to them means it can be redistributed freely. I agree that an actual license would be reassuring though.

Yes, you are absolutely right about license. Even i was reading that article (Tax_Cloud one right?).

I love the aesthetic and the semantics. Nice job!

However, I'm not seeing any responsiveness to the grid; it renders the same when I resize the browser or view in mobile.

Nice but Zurb does this and so much more.

Thanks for the mention, wheaties. We're very proud of Foundation (http://foundation.zurb.com), and our team devotes countless hours to ensuring it's the best responsive front-end framework out there.

As others said, why not bootstrap?

This is great. These frameworks usually have a .css and a .min.css file.

I would love to see one that has a .verbose.css where all possible attributes or properties are listed and commented out in the brackets for that element. As a reference or resource to grab a chunk from for your own .css file.

I would love if there was a project like "bootstriped", where I would get all the classes but with minimal styling, with just a visual hint of what they should look like. I could very easily adapt them to my own needs and designs. Does that sounds like a good idea? I might actually do it (or not).

It seems like bootstrap with less features

paulgb|13 years ago

Sometimes, that's exactly what you need.

Nice work - it's always good to see new CSS frameworks coming out
