Basic boasts a clean HTML5 structure with extensible CSS classes for unlimited theming possibilities as well as a top-down load order for improved SEO. It is fully responsive out-of-the-box and provides an adaptive, elegant, SASS mixin library and grid system.

Basic's goal is to provide themers the building blocks and best practices needed to get their designs up and running quickly and simply.

Basic is perfect if you want a simple, smart, and flexible theme starter.

Use Basic with SASS and Bourbon

Basic's CSS files have been compiled with a preprocessing language called SASS (Syntactically Awesome Stylesheets). For more information on SASS, visit http://sass-lang.com/

We also utilize Bourbon, a comprehensive library of SASS mixins that are designed to be simple and easy to use. The mixins aim to be as vanilla as possible, meaning they should be as close to the original CSS syntax as possible.
