Using the Milligram Minimalist CSS Framework
Every now and then a new minimalist CSS framework comes along for those looking to implement a framework for structure without carrying the weight of Bootstrap or Material. Milligram is one of these frameworks. At just 8.8KB for the minified style, Milligram offers a consistent look and feel for:
- Typography
- Blockquotes
- Buttons
- Lists
- Forms
- Tables
- Grids
- Code
- … and more!
There’s several utility classes that are used most frequently with other frameworks that Milligram also includes such as .clearfix
, .float-left
, and .float-right
. Milligram also offers a mobile first design strategy. The default font used is Roboto, which is available as a Google font.
