This is the project page for the CSS Framework Atatonic to make my life as a web developer easier. It is created out of my experience as a front end engineer and because some new big projects are coming up this year. I do not want to be spending my time in rebuilding CSS I have already build some other time.
What! Another one?
Lately there are more and more CSS frameworks popping out of ground. My issue with most of them is that they mainly focus on the grid. All the other options are added in later. This framework has its main focus on typography. Vertical rhythm is one of the most important things in design, so why not start your perspective from that angle?
To make my life easier as a developer I added grid support in the Atatonic CSS Framework. Its works like any other grid system, but with only about 10 lines of css.
The main goal of this project is to provide a solid base to start with every project. I do not want to bloat this framework with features. That is what you do in the project specific styles. The combined file is only 5kb. Deflate of gzip it and you are down to 3kb.
Incremental development
The Atatonic CSS Framework is still very young. It is a basic set-up of typography and grid tools. Changes will be made and things will be added in the process. I aim to keep the core small and voerviewable. So extra features will be added as plugins. Like a stylesheet for forms or something that adds extra typographical features.
Check it out.
