Code with Confidence

Using clear, humanized naming conventions, Basscss is quick to internalize and easy to reason about while speeding up development time with more scalable, more readable code.

No Side Effects

Things behave exactly as expected with immutable utilities and styles that follow the open/closed principle to help prevent common pitfalls with CSS.

Composable

Reusable, interoperable styles work like building blocks to lay the foundation for any stylesheet and can be mixed and matched in any number of combinations.

Designed for Design

Basscss strikes a balance between consistency and flexibility to allow for rapid prototyping and quick iterative changes when designing in the browser.

Responsive by Default

Basscss provides lightweight, performant styles and flexible utilities to design for any device and to help reduce boilerplate in stylesheets.

Unassuming

Modular and customizable base, typography, layout, and color styles don’t dictate what things should look like and play well with other stylesheets and frameworks.
