Barebones

Barebones is simple, responsive boilerplate based off the popular Skeleton project by Dave Gamache.

Why Barebones?

Building off of Skeleton's awesomeness:

• Normalize.css added as a submodule to remain current
• Updated to use CSS variables
• Uses CSS Grid instead of 12-column grid system
• Pending Release: Uses CSS env() function
• Possible: Add basic Nav boilerplate

Current Status

2019-01-20 - updates currently being made on v3 branch. No releases yet.

Getting started

Barebones can be downloaded via zip file or the repo can be cloned:

• Clone the repo: https://github.com/acahir/Barebones.git

Note: The current master branch is simply v2.0.4 of Skeleton. Branch v3 is under active development.

Browser support

• Chrome latest
• Firefox latest
• Opera latest
• Safari latest
• IE latest

With the inclusion of CSS Grid, support for IE v11 and earlier is not included. Check caniuse for more details. While possible to include partial support for IE with -ms prefixes, it doesn't seem justified at this time.
