CSS based Responsive Web Design Frameworks

Responsive web design is not something that can be implemented at one go. However, web designers and developers can use some immensely useful CSS-based frameworks for turning a normal website into a responsive one. These tools require minimal JavaScript and CSS programming. Through this article, I will cover some of the best responsive design frameworks available in the market.

Neat

Neat is a semantic grid CSS based responsive design framework built on top of Sass and Bourbon. The developers have kept everything simple and easier to implement as compared with other similar tools available in the market. Neat is lightweight and can handle most grids used in modern web design.

Sematic UI

Semantic UI provides a great foundation and flexibility for responsive web development.  This CSS web design tool offers separate UI collection, UI elements and UI modules that can be integrated with a website’s source code, besides providing real-time JavaScript behavior and bug output.

Ingrid

Just like Neat, Ingrid is a lightweight responsive CSS layout tool, and working with it seems kind of fun. It is highly customizable and the best part about Ingrid is its ability to reduce classes on individual units. The learning curve might be a little steep, but this framework delivers some great results. I advise all web designer folks to give this tool a try.

Foundation

All the great things are kept for the end and likewise, I kept Foundation for the last. This CSS based responsive design framework, developed by ZURB, is perhaps the most used tool for creating highly innovative and clutter free responsive website. Apart from the responsive feature, one can also create mobile websites using Foundation. It happens to be a personal favorite of mine as well.
