Milligram
A minimalist CSS framework for fast and clean web design

What is Milligram?

Milligram provides a minimal setup of styles for a fast and clean starting point in web development. It focuses on delivering a lightweight solution with only 2kb gzipped, ensuring better performance and higher productivity by reducing the number of properties to reset, which results in cleaner code. The framework is not intended as a full UI framework but as a foundational tool to streamline the design process.

It includes essential components such as typography, blockquotes, buttons, lists, forms, tables, grids, code snippets, and utilities, all optimized for modern browsers. Milligram uses the CSS Flexible Box Layout Module for a fluid grid system and supports mobile-first design strategies with responsive breakpoints. The framework is easy to integrate via various installation methods, including Bower, npm, Yarn, or CDN, and comes with a CLI for quick project setup.
