Introduction

sscaffold combines css rules from normalize.css, skeleton.css, and milligram into a single, reorganized, easy-to-use css file, with bugfixes and a few other updates and additions. It emphasizes sensible defaults and semantic HTML.

Size vs. skeleton and milligram

sscaffold is a little bit heftier than skeleton or milligram:

Library	Minified Size (1)
Skeleton 2.0.4 (2)	7.7K
Milligram 1.3.0 (3)	11K
sscaffold 0.1.1 (4)	14K

• ^{(1) Each css file was run through cssminifier for an apples-to-apples comparison.}
• ^{(2) The Skeleton 2.0.4 package includes Normalize 3.0.2. The current version of Normalize is 8.0.1. Normalize 3.0.2 was added to the Skeleton 2.0.4 file before minifying it.}
• ^{(3) Milligram 1.3.0 requires Normalize 5.0.0. The current version of Normalize is 8.0.1. Normalize 5.0.0 was added to the Milligram 1.3.0 file before minifying it.}
• ^{(4) sscaffold 0.1.1 has no external dependencies. Normalize 8.0.1 has already been integrated into sscaffold.css.}

For 3K over Milligram and 7K over Skeleton you save an https request and get the features of both plus a few extras.
