Ribs is the evolution of Skeleton, the original author seems to have disappeared and/or lost interest in the project, and my colleagues and I use this an awful lot.
My fork has one significant difference over the original project, that is a full SCSS conversion to make use of more modern technologies and to expose a lot more customisation options quickly and easily.
As time goes by I will gradually extend the available options and build a packaging tool that allows you to select all of your customisations in a graphical way, thinking something along the lines of jQuery themeroller, just a bit more lightweight.
Either clone this repository and drop in manually, or install from bower:
bower install --save ribs
The project is set up to build and run csslint on Travis:
Master:
I've added grunt configuration to the repository for those of you that use it.
There are 4 main tasks added:
- default - Runs Sass to create the stylesheet from the source files, places the output in ./css then creates a minified version of the file and places it into the same directory
- test - This runs CSSLint over the output CSS file (Note that there are a few bits in skeleton that I need to fix!)
- minify - This literally just runs cssmin, useful if you've edited Ribs.css directly
- watch - This will monitor the scss directory for changes and automatically rebuild the css and minified css (Effectively the same as sass --watch but with added minification)
You need to npm install grunt-cli to start with, otherwise you wont have a runner!
Then following that, from the root dir of this project, run npm install
which will set up all of the required dependencies.
You should be good to go.
