September 11, 2012I can vouch for using Foundation 3. It’s great for mocking up straight forward looking and functional sites, and even is a good starting point to build on top of for full site design.

September 12, 2012You’re forgetting The Semantic Grid System, which is great because it doesn’t add any useless classes (from the semantic point of view) to the HTML.

September 25, 2012I use Bootstrap for admin interfaces as it is a great way to make web apps look really sharp. For the front end I’ve been getting away with the old 960 grid. The lazy part of me wants to use Gumby 960 but maybe that is a mistake.

September 26, 2012The foundation is great, in any case, but on the other hand, restricting the freedom
I use WIREFY from author Chris Da Sie, gives a large amount of freedom.

March 20, 2013Just last weekend, I released a new CSS framework I labeled “Cascade Framework”.
Cascade Framework combines feature richness with modularity, flexibility and a tiny footprint while maintaining support for old browsers.
