water.css[0] and pico.css[1] are some of my favorite classless css libraries. There's a full list of them here: https://github.com/dbohdan/classless-css [0]: https://watercss.kognise.dev/ [1]: https://picocss.com/

I love Pico and wanted to point out there's very active development for a soon to be released v2: https://v2.picocss.com/

This doesn't look right with the dark reader extension in firefox. I would expect a website that's compatible with dark mode to work with dark reader (I.e. I would expect dark reader to not influence the CSS in that case)

That is sadly not the case. I disable dark reader for all sites supporting darkmode because it always changes them.

I would never expect a browser extension to work flawlessly with every possible site out there.

You are the user of the extension. Does it break a site? Submit a patch to the extension! Certainly don't complain to the website author who has no control over what extensions you personally use.

This is very helpful!

I've been looking for a tiny classless CSS framework to go with petite-vue in a build-step-free app for a microcontroller project.

water.css looks a good candidate already but there are some others to investigate there.

Uptime sniper link is broken

Looks like a failed/abandoned project. The user that opened the PR (only 6 months ago) to add uptimesniper to the list has since deleted their GitHub account, and the uptimesniper website and twitter are gone. I guess someone sniped its uptime!

Some stuff like the drop down arrow doesn't look right in dark mode, would likely be fixed with `color-scheme: dark`

There is no drop-down arrow in light mode either, which does create an accessibility issue, I'll have to reflect on that.

I created the style-sheet to be as minimalist as possible, but there is such a thing as too much minimalism.

Not sure I would make the "disabled" buttons stand out more brightly than a regular button. In fact I would swap the colors of those buttons, or maybe make the disabled button greyed out.

I limited myself to black and white when creating the style-sheet, but maybe I should indeed add some kind of indicator for the "disabled" button, such as hatchings.

edit: hatchings make the inner text unreadable, I'll play around with opacity and dotted lines, thank you to the users who proposed them.

edit 2: went with dashed lines and published a new version. It even shaves off a couple of bytes off the minimized version :D
