Ask HN: What's the best minimal CSS framework?

5 points by jnardiello ↗ HN
Hello HN, I'm a backend programmer and it's been quite some time since I worked with anything frontend related. I'm not bootstrapping a quick project, kind of prototype to "throw" out there and see what is the feedback. Meaning that I know very little about CSS and I don't really want to spend days trying to learn how to properly use complex fancy tools.

I'm looking for a basic grid system (possible responsive), a few buttons, forms, and so on - the usual stuff CSS frameworks are done for.

Bootstrap and Foundation would be my default choice but they cause a bit of a overhead. Is there any minimal framework out there that would speed up the process? Maybe based on bootstrap or foundation, just simpler.

Thanks in advance

Check out pure.css at purecss.io. It is lightweight(4 kb) and covers a number of common ui components.
