I am the author of this framework. Vital was built from the need for a truly mobile optimized CSS framework. If there are any questions regarding this framework feel free to ask. Hope you find this framework useful for your projects.

Interesting, as much as I don't think we need yet another CSS framework you bring up some good points about maintaining and expanding on something like Bootstrap. Are there plans to release a GEM and/or NPM package?

A ruby gem and NPM package is in the works. Almost ready for release.

Interesting, do you have any examples of sites built with Vital?

Are there any lightweight CSS frameworks with cards?

bodytaing 10 years ago | |

If you are referring to a layout that has a card UI like what Pinterest has, this can be built with almost any grid.

See the "Grid" section of Vital: http://doximity.github.io/vital/components/

It's just a matter of styling the elements within the grid. I'm working on adding some layout examples to Vital.
