I think Marx also fits the criteria for this list #1

Marx - The classless CSS reset (perfect for Communists).

Marx is a CSS stylesheet to be used in any projects (namely small ones). If you don't need the weight of heavy frameworks or you would just like to make an edible website quickly, Marx is perfect for you. It can be used out of the minified box but it can also be customised and styled through the use of HTML classes.

Thanks for making Marx and suggesting it. I added it and had a good chuckle from the subtitle.

Haha glad you liked it! 😆 I think I came up with the name and worked backwards to make a framework without classes

I wonder if there should be a max-width of 700px (?) that are standardised across each of the styles. Marx specifically uses a <main> tag to set the width where others set this in the <body> tags

ubershmekel commented 5 years ago

@mblode my thinking was to have zero CSS in the shared template. Completely relying on the snippet to style everything. So no explicit 700px.

About having a <main> tag - that seems to fix Bahunya as well and doesn't impact anything else. Is there a tradeoff? What else can there be besides <main> or is it always the one node under body?

ubershmekel commented 5 years ago

I see on the Marx site there is a <nav>. I wonder if I should add one to the cssbed too...

mblode commented 5 years ago

I just saw this discussion on Hacker News today about whether you target the body or main/container with a max-width. In my mind some elements such as the nav should have the option to expand the full-width (as seen on the demo). There is probably no need for a nav on CSS bed, however, as I can only imagine that it would be extremely inconsistently styled across each stylesheet. But if you could add a main tag nested below body, that would help out the layout of Marx, Bahunya, and probably some future styles.

@mblode I added it. Thanks for the note.
