Browser/Device Support

Due the use of Flexbox and other HTML5 features we are limited to IE 10+.

Browser Version
Safari 7.1+
Google Chrome 30+
Internet Explorer 10+
Firefox 30+

I tested FlexCss on different Android and iOS Devices.

Sass/css

The patterns included may be used for prototyping and to get an idea what is possible with flexbox. It's not supposed to be a generic production-ready framework yet (but might become in the future).

Fonts

FlexCss includes a custom font set of fontello (http://fontello.com/), you can disable including this by overwriting $includeFontello and set it to false

Either way, there is also a mixin called icon which you can use to setup a font.

Development

Requires node to be installed. run npm install, and gulp to start compiling sources, recompilation is triggered automatically on file change

jekyll

jekyll is used to create the pages for this project, run bundle install for setup and then bundle exec jekyll serve to start the local server to read documentation.

Tests

There is no 100% coverage yet, but I'm working on it :D.

run npm test to run all specs, run npm test --watch to start TDD mode.

TODO

The Project is in a really early stage and a lot of things have to be improved. Although running in production, it's not 100% ready for a public release. Use at your own risk!

  • API Documentation, more examples
  • Code Cleanup
  • get near to 100% Coverage by specs
  • improve tooling and gulp setup
