Baseline for wearing ITCSS. Based on INUIT CSS from Harry Roberts
Like others, haiticss is just another CSS framework to wear any project with the ITCSS architecture. Mainly inspired on the excellent project inuitcss by Harry Roberts, from where we found our best suitable starting point. If you plan to compare and choose other solutions, we suggest you to check iotaCSS and Nebula CSS as well.
The main idea that encouraged us to create this project, comes from the necessity to align a solid CSS architecture with a visual language and design collaboration workflow. We use it to build coherent and consistent interfaces, style guides and design systems. Works for both new projects and existing ones, no matter if you start from scratch or you inherited a legacy hell to improve or maintain. If you're looking for similar objectives, maybe you found a suitable starting point for your project.
