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.

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

Browser support

Chrome latest
Firefox latest
Opera 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.
