I really love the default theme. Like a lot. And reading the source it makes a lot more sense to me than Bootstrap (eventhough, I'm sure, that bootstrap has a way bigger community/ecosystem in place.)<p>I'll make a superficial branch for some of my work and see how it ends up :)
This is a wonderful library but it falls short on one major aspect which limits its design capabilities. Currently a block spanning N columns on a desktop must span N columns or 1 column on a mobile device. This means you can't have a 6x2 grid become a 2 by 6 grid on mobiles. It will have to be 12 blocks stacked on top of one another.<p>Inuit is another framework that allows for this though it lacks in documentation and a user friendly website.

<button class="pure-button pure-button-disabled">A Disabled Button</button><p>Oh please. Why not just a <button disabled>? So much redundancy and overly-verboseness for nothing.<p>"Namespacing" your CSS classes would make sense if you were actually composing element's style from multiple frameworks/libraries (vs. programming code), but that's not usually the case with CSS frameworks.
Not to be confused with Pure, the JS templating library<p><a href="http://beebole.com/pure/" rel="nofollow">http://beebole.com/pure/</a>
Good find. The pricing plan sample layout (<a href="http://purecss.io/layouts/" rel="nofollow">http://purecss.io/layouts/</a>) looks clean, even if I despise the blurred background with white text overlay. Reminds me of Windows 8 flat design.
The nice thing about Pure to me is the fact that they encourage you to write your own top layer. While Bootstrap 3 says that they also encourage this, the number of components in Bootstrap make it somewhat difficult to learn and implement.<p>An hour of looking at Pure, however, is enough to get started with confidence.<p>The grid classes are a bit strange to me though.<p>`pure-u-1-2` is "descriptive"? Not so much, unless you know the system.
The proxima-nova font is quite fuzzy on non-grey buttons (<a href="http://purecss.io/buttons/" rel="nofollow">http://purecss.io/buttons/</a>) on my thunderbolt display. I wouldn't be surprised if some people find it difficult to read.
