Blueprint CSS Framework

Sep 23, 2009 12:57

So, I've needed to do a redesign of the company's web page for quite a while and it's finally gotten to the top of the priority list. I hate, *hate* doing html and CSS layouts, so I needed something to ease the process a bit. Customizing other peoples' templates usually results in a bigger mess than just starting from scratch. I rediscovered Dreamweaver for a bit but found that it really didn't help much at all vs hand-coding CSS. I needed a layout, I needed it fast, and I needed the project not make me want to stick hot pokers in my eyes.

Enter: Blueprint CSS framework! It's a very simple idea executed very well, and it's really surprising how much less painful it's making the entire process. I had a (very) slight mismatch with IE6, but IE7, IE8, Firefox, Safari, etc work flawlessly out-of-the-box. Yay!
