Hey there, I’m Harry , the creator of a recently rewritten CSS framework called inuit.css . This article should hopefully serve as a quick intro to what inuit.css is, why it’s different and how you can start using it right away… Another CSS Framework is Born First off, I know what you’re thinking; another CSS framework?! Well, the short answer is yes… The long answer is ‘Yes, but there’s a reason for this one…’ CSS frameworks are currently ten-a-penny with plenty of people releasing their take on the CSS framework on a fairly regular basis. The problem with most of these frameworks is that they’re very opinionated; CSS is a styling language so any CSS framework inherently deals with cosmetics and with look-and-feel. inuit.css, however, doesn’t. A CSS framework making a lot of design decisions is great if you’re a developer who needs someone or something else to handle the design for you, but what if you’re a designer who needs a hand with CSS? Using a framework would mean you’d have to either put up with someone else’s design decisions and opinions or begin deleting lots and lots of code; or both! Someone else’s design will likely be entirely unsuitable for your project, making it almost completely pointless. This is far from ideal, what we need is a CSS framework that does zero styling; a framework which does a lot of heavy lifting.
