Foundation for Sites (Public Beta)

This is the in-development version of Foundation for Sites 6.0.

Requirements

Requires NodeJS to be installed on your machine. Works with 0.10, 0.12, and 4.1! Note that parts of our build process will break with NPM 3, due to the changes in how packages are installed.

The Sass is compiled using libsass, which requires the GCC to be installed on your machine. Windows users can install it through MinGW, and Mac users can install it through the Xcode Command-line Tools.

Setup

git clone https://github.com/zurb/foundation-sites-6.git
cd foundation-sites-6
npm install
npm start

Local Testing

npm start will compile the documentation. For this testing period, we've created a small testbed to experiment with components. You can find the assets under the testing/ folder. To use the testbed, run npm run testbed after installing the needed dependencies.
