Groundwork uses best practice to create a foundation for building web applications. Promoting an OOCSS approach with it's powerful abstraction classes as well as module pattern scaffolding for Javascript.
We use the reset of all resets by Eric Meyer. Some nice typograhical styles working off a consistent vertical rythym. As well as some simple button styles.
Abstraction classesClasses meant for extension
With these powerful classes you can quickly build slick interfaces while writing a lot less code. Remember, these are open for extension; not modification.
Javascript scaffolding Simple & Powerful
Bare-bones sample module pattern to keep your JS nicely organised. Bootstrapped with jQuery, but vanilla enough to adapt to your preferred library.
& The rest is up to you…
Plug & Play
Everyone builds websites in their own way. Groundwork doesn't come with a grid system or any other packaged modules. Easily import more stylesheets when need be.
