Cool to see a project using Skeleton. Was disappointed when that project fizzled out once the creator left. It hit the sweet spot in CSS frameworks for me: small, un-opinionated and hard for people to tell you're using a framework (unlike Bootstrap which you can spot a mile away). Haven't found anything to replace it yet.
I've used Skeleton in some projects while I was contracting. I've moved on to Milligram.

I would highly recommend basscss Small, light-weight, and gets out of your way for the most part. It also supports flexbox if you choose to go down that route.

#34This is an awesome library, and seems to be very vibrant on Github. If you're looking for something commercial (and paying for something commercial) however, I'd probably recommend one of the step by step tutorial tools that allow you to build the walk through using a visual editor, and without having to add code for each individual walk through and tool tip. This is one of those cases where I just want to add a shor…
Can you recommend a commercial product that does this?

Once I had a requirement and ended up trying nearly all of them and unfortunately, had to write my own (took about a day and a half) that accomplished the tour exactly the way I wanted. Off the top of my head, I can't recall what each of them missed but primary reason was that often they take off with a great experience and then the lead developer can't devote enough time to meet the diverse requirements of a huge community. The library ends up with a huge user base with lots of open issues, some critical to the user experience on the myriad of mobile devices.

#39Earlier quoted context omitted.
I'm not sure if you're aware, but the terms of the MIT License apply to commercial as well as non-commercial use. That means it would be fine to use intro.js commercially without a commercial licence.
There's some confusion here about dual licensing projects. Maybe an internet lawyer can comment. The most successful project that I know of that uses dual license is qt which offers a GPL license for open source and a $500+ per month license without restrictions for commercial. Some people say you can just link dynamically and include instructions for how to relink yourself, but if that's true why would anyone provid…
