Skeleton CSS

Skeleton: A Dead Simple, Responsive Boilerplate for Mobile-Friendly Develop...

README

Skeleton is a simple, responsive boilerplate to kickstart any responsive project.

Check out for documentation and details.

Getting started


There are a couple ways to download Skeleton:
- Clone the repo: git clone https://github.com/dhg/Skeleton.git (Note: this is under active development, so if you're looking for stable and safe, use the zipped download)


What's in the download?


The download includes Skeleton's CSS, Normalize CSS as a reset, a sample favicon, and an index.html as a starting point.

  1. ```
  2. Skeleton/
  3. index.html
  4. css/
  5.    normalize.min.css
  6.    skeleton.css
  7. images/
  8.      favicon.ico

  9. ```

Why it's awesome


Skeleton is lightweight and simple. It styles only raw HTML elements (with a few exceptions) and provides a responsive grid. Nothing more.
- Around 400 lines of CSS unminified and with comments
- It's a starting point, not a UI framework
- No compiling or installing...just vanilla CSS


Browser support


- Chrome latest
- Firefox latest
- Opera latest
- Safari latest
- IE latest

The above list is non-exhaustive. Skeleton works perfectly with almost all older versions of the browsers above, though IE certainly has large degradation prior to IE9.

Extensions


The following are extensions to Skeleton built by the community. They are not officially supported, but all have been tested and are compatible with v2.0 (exact release noted):
- Skeleton on LESS: Skeleton built with LESS for easier replacement of grid, color, and media queries. (Last update was to match v2.0.1)
- Skeleton on Sass: Skeleton built with Sass for easier replacement of grid, color, and media queries. (Last update was to match v2.0.1)
