About

Foundation is an open-source responsive framework that provides a customizable grid system, a library of UI components (Building Blocks), HTML templates, and JavaScript plugins.

It includes keyboard accessibility, screen-reader support, ARIA attributes, device-adaptive visibility controls, and two types of grids (Flexbox and CSS Grid) to enable advanced layout control.

UIkit is a lightweight and modular front-end framework.

It includes more than 30 reusable components such as modals, tooltips, accordions, navigation menus and sliders, a responsive fluid grid, and supports theme customization via Sass or Less.
