Skeleton-Styl

Skeleton-Styl is the (un)official Stylus version of Dave Gamache's Skeleton Framework. It currently featues a stable version of Skeleton 2.0.4

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

Check out http://getskeleton.com for documentation and details.

Getting started

Install Global Dependancies

• Node.js

What's in the download?

The download includes Skeleton's source files and distribution files, ~~ a sample favicon, and an index.html as a starting point.

│   └── skeleton.lite.css
├── images/

PLS, skeleton.css embeds normalize.css as its reset while skeleton.lite.css is a lite version without normalize.css.

Contributions

The goal of Skeleton-Styl is to have a mirrored Stylus repository of Skeleton. In order to keep the integrity of the original Skeleton framework, I cannot accept any features or functionality outside the original implementation of Dave Gamache's Skeleton Framework. If you would like to see features, functionality, or extensions outside of the original please make a PR / or issue on the original skeleton framework.

If you have stylus improvements, additional mixins, or other helpful stylus techniques that stay within the original codebase. Feel free to make a pull request!

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.

• Minified, it's less than a kb
• 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.
