Declaring love for inuit.css

It’s been a while since my last post, either due to life getting busy, or just having nothing to say… I’m not sure.

I first heard about inuit.css a few months back when Harry from csswizardry released it. I had a quick look, thought it looked useful, then forgot all about it until about a week or so ago. I had decided it was about time I got round to building a new theme for my blog, so it seemed like a good time to try out inuit.css at last. The result is this, V2 of my theme. It’s built entirely from scratch this time, merging the inuit.css framework with the WordPress functions and loops we all know and love.

I’ve attempted to go for a much cleaner and bolder design this time, as I’m starting to concentrate more on development and less on design. In doing so I think I’ve come up with something that is far more responsive than my last theme, and built to a higher standard. As far as I’m aware, the more responsive css you have, the cooler you are? At the moment I have about 3 lines that weren’t included in inuit.css, so I think that makes me a padawan. Soon I will be a jedi master however…

Anyway, I digress. I love inuit.css. It’s by far the best css framework I’ve ever tried. The igloos are a brilliant concept as well, I’m currently using one available on inuitcss.com and have started developing one of my own. (Watch this space).

I strongly recommend having a look yourselves. It’s available on github so anyone can grab a copy, have a tinker and suggest updates of their own. I’ve already suggested a few myself, which may end up making it in to the next release, who knows.
