       | The emphasis away from semantic HTML and towards component-based
       | frameworks with all the associated utility CSS classes has been a
       | disaster for accessibility, and it's good to see projects that
       | have all users in mind.

         | 
         | Granted you do see things like divs with click handlers used as
         | buttons by people who don't know what they're doing, but I saw
         | plenty of that in the jQuery days too.

       | But always happy to see more classless CSS options.

       | Another great classless css framework is new.css
       | (https://newcss.net/).

       | Nice. Comparing with MVP.CSS, another class-less CSS framework,
       | this has less feature (MVP has a way to create cards), but also
       | seems to avoid two things that I don't like about MVP: centered
       | block quote, and links without underline.

       | 
       | Aside from that, the semantic styling for `header` and `nav` is
       | really clever and well done. Looks good.
