7.css is a tiny CSS framework that takes semantic HTML and styles them to the Windows 7 design. It is built on top of XP.css, which is an extension of 98.CSS.

It does not ship with any JavaScript, so it is compatible with your frontend framework of choice.

Installation / Usage

The easiest way to use 7.css is to import it from unpkg.

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
  <head>
    <title>7.css example</title>
    <meta charset="UTF-8" />
    <link rel="stylesheet" href="https://unpkg.com/7.css" />
  </head>

  <body>
    <div class="window" style="margin: 32px; width: 250px">
      <div class="title-bar">
        <div class="title-bar-text">My First Program</div>
      </div>
      <div class="window-body">
        <p>Hello, world!</p>
      </div>
    </div>
  </body>
</html>

Alternatively, you can grab 7.css from npm.

npm install 7.css

Usage:

import "7.css/dist/7.css";

Refer to the documentation page for specific instructions on this framework's components.

Developing

Clone the repo and run npm install.

The core styles are managed in gui.

You can use npm start to start a development environment that will watch for file changes and rebuild the files, reloading your browser in the process.

You can run a build manually with npm run build. This will write to the dist/ directory.

Issues, Contributing, etc.

You are so welcome to report issues, help out with contributions or whatever you could think of to improve this lovely UI framework.
