FAQ

1. Why should I use this over Bootstrap (or any other framework)?

newton.css is incredibly lightweight, easy to learn, mobile-friendly, and doesn't require dependencies other than your browser and text editor. While Bootstrap provides awesome features for responsive web design, some of it may be excessive. newton places focus on aesthetically pleasing web designs, while also providing you core features without the overhead.

2. Can I help contribute?

Definitely! I am not a web developer by default, and I'm always looking forward to learning about flexbox, grids, and other fun stuff. Check the TODO list to get more information, or send a pull request / issue.
