Ignite

ViUR Ignite is a sizzling PostCSS boilerplate

Our goal is to create a boilerplate that is sturdy and scalable yet lightweight and adaptable to our different customer projects. Our approach to CSS is influenced by many modern CSS principles: object oriented, functional and structured. It uses the power of PostCSS.

For a detailed introduction and examples have a look at ignite.viur.dev.
