Simple.css is a classless CSS template that allows you to make a good looking website really quickly. By classless I mean that there are no CSS classes anywhere in the CSS or the HTML. So your website can look just like this using plain old vanilla HTML.

When starting a new project, I wanted a CSS framework that would get me up and running quickly, and give me something I could hack on. I got sick of all these giant frameworks that include everything but the kitchen sink, 90% of which I’ll never use. For example, the minified CSS for the Bootstrap framework is 144KB in total. By comparison, Simple.css is around 4KB.

Includes a good looking sans-serif local font stack, typographic best practices, automatic flipping to dark mode, and sensible defaults.
