  • I had a server-side app made for personal stuff, and pico.css drop-in is a pretty good baseline for an usable UI/page. Also visited some web hosts and their sites look perfectly serviceable with Bootstrap. I think it's a good way to railroad some of the more egregious things LLMs might do with regards to CSS.

  • For me it is definitely Pico.css. Honorable mentions: simple.css, tacit, w3c-chocolate.

  • Quite a few of them look off on mobile, they either have no edge margins at all or they're too large and force the user to scroll horizontally

  • Some really unexpected domain redirects for this one for some reason: https://www.cssbed.com/vanillacss

    All the others are as you'd expect.

  • Love the idea. It's really painful to cycle through every theme. Would be great to have a way to scroll through them directly, though... that would result in a bigger bundle, and I respect the hustle

  • I’m surprised how few of them support dark mode.

    IMHO today dark mode support is part of reasonable defaults.

  • I understand the "starting point" part but I find the emphasis on "classless" interesting: you basically have to introduce a non-element selector as soon as you want make even the smallest layout change.

    For anything beyond a single page document, I find something like matcha.css (https://matcha.mizu.sh, you can even pick your custom build on the same page) a practical starting point if you want to stay close to the elements.

  • Reminds me of this website for checking classless stylesheets.
