About LowCSS

LowCSS is a powerful CSS utility framework built with SASS, designed to streamline your CSS development process and enable you to create beautiful, responsive web interfaces with ease. Inspired by the popular Tailwind CSS, LowCSS follows a similar structure and syntax, making it familiar and intuitive for developers already familiar with Tailwind CSS.

Features

• SASS-based: Harness the power of SASS to create modular and maintainable CSS code.
• Intuitive Utility Classes: Use utility classes to apply styles directly to HTML elements, avoiding repetitive CSS coding.
• Responsive Design: Create responsive layouts effortlessly with built-in responsive utility classes.
• Customizable: Customize the framework to match your brand's aesthetic by modifying SASS variables.
• Lightweight: Keep your page load times low with optimized and minimal CSS file sizes.
• Pseudo-Class Modifiers: Apply styles to elements in specific states like hover, focus, and active.

Using LowCSS on a static site

    <h1 class="text-2xl">Welcome to LowCSS</h1>
    <p class="mt-2">Start building stunning web interfaces with ease!</p>
</div>

Refer to the Utility Classes Documentation for a complete list of available utility classes and their usage.
