Spectre.css (maintained fork)

Spectre.css is a lightweight, responsive and modern CSS framework.

  • Lightweight (~10KB gzipped) starting point for your projects
  • Flexbox-based, responsive and mobile-friendly layout
  • Elegantly designed and developed elements and components

Spectre is a side project based on years of CSS development work on a large web service project. Spectre only includes modern base styles, responsive layout system, CSS components and utilities, and it can be modified for your project with Sass/Scss compiler.

Purpose of this fork

As the original repository unfortunately is no longer maintained, I started this fork of Spectre.css to continue development and update with latest browser versions.

My main goal for this fork is to build on the spirit of the excellent work by the original author and make the framework even better, which means

  • keep it extremely lightweight, simple and minimal
  • stay up-to-date with latest browser developments
  • assure high quality of all changes

Major Changes ✨

Next to several bug fixes this fork has these major improvements compared to the beautiful original work:

  • use Dart SASS with @use at-rules
  • automated visual tests and build & security checks
  • up-to-date libraries and latest CSS improvements
  • expose SASS variables as CSS variables

Of course I'm happy to accept pull requests for bugfix or feature proposals. Any contributions are welcome!

Browser support

Spectre uses Autoprefixer to make most styles compatible with earlier browsers and Normalize.css for CSS resets. Spectre is designed for modern browsers. For best compatibility, these browsers are recommended:

  • Chrome (LAST 4)
  • Microsoft Edge (LAST 4)
  • Firefox (EXTENDED SUPPORT RELEASE)
  • Safari (LAST 4)
  • Opera (LAST 4)
  • Internet Explorer 10+

Spectre supports Internet Explorer 10+, but some HTML5 and CSS3 features are not perfectly supported by Internet Explorer.
