dev.css: tiny, classless stylesheet that makes plain HTML look modern

What is dev.css?

dev.css is a minimalist, classless CSS framework inspired by new.css. It’s a single stylesheet meant to modernize and make plain HTML responsive — the minified file weighs roughly 5.5 KB. It also tacks on a few niceties you don’t always see in pocket-sized frameworks: an optional sidebar, addons, and a demo site at devcss.devins.page so you can kick the tires.

Who should care?

Who is this for? Simple blogs, “about me” pages, link collections, and quick prototypes — basically anything that benefits from a low-friction, drop-in style. It wasn’t built for sprawling web apps, though you can fork or extend it if you need more muscle; SkywardMC’s wiki is cited as an example of a real site using it. For developers who dread CSS minutiae, this is the little relief you didn’t know you needed.

How to get started

Install it by adding the stylesheet tag to your head or by installing the npm package: npm add @intergrav/dev.css. Fonts like Geist and Inter are supported out of the box; otherwise the framework falls back to system fonts. There’s even a “powered by dev.css” badge if you want to show a bit of love — tiny, practical, and exactly what the static-site crowd has been asking for.
