Installation

Getting Started

Getting started couldn't be easier

First you need to link the stylesheets

<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="css/lemonade.css">
<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="css/styles.css">

lemonade.css is the main grid (which can be easily customised) styles.css is your base styles on top of your grid

Structuring your layouts

<div class="frame">
	<div class="bit-3">Content here</div>
	<div class="bit-3">Content here</div>
	<div class="bit-3">Content here</div>
</div>

Creating a three-column layout (for galleries for example) is really simple, this will scale down to 100% on mobile. Wrap the .bit's in a .frame class to clear the floats.

Customising your grid

Maybe you want to go old school and create a two-column layout, It's so easy all you need is basic math (along as the .bit- classes equal to 100%, it will be perfect).

<div class="frame">
	<div class="bit-75">Content here</div>
	<div class="bit-25">Content here</div>
</div>

Creating the css is also simple:

.bit-75 {width:75%;}
.bit-25 {width:25%;}
