Rebar is a lightweight HTML5 / CSS3 framework for making responsive websites built using the LESS preprocessor
This is a collection of CSS styles and corresponding HTML elements that are currently being styled. Use this code to develop the front-end of your website.
The CSS styles are all broken apart into smaller easy to manage LESS files that draw from configurable variables in the less/rebar/config.less file which is then compiled to CSS.
You can install Rebar using the Bower package manager by typing:
$ bower install rebar
If you're unfamiliar with LESS I suggest CodeKit for Mac OS, or Grunt which uses Node.js and runs on the command line.
Rebar is a collection of modular CSS files that helps rapidly develop sites that look beautiful at any size, be it a 17" laptop screen or an iPhone. It's based on a responsive grid, but also provides very basic CSS for typography, buttons, forms and media queries. Go ahead, resize this super basic page to see the grid in action.
Written with small file sizes in mind, the core rebar.css library is under 30K in size.
Rebar is built on three core principles:

Rebar is a small collection of CSS files that can help you rapidly develop sites that look beautiful at any size, be it a 17" laptop screen or an iPhone. Rebar is built on three core principles:
Rebar has a familiar, lightweight 960 grid as its base, but elegantly scales down to downsized browser windows, tablets, mobile phones (in landscape and portrait). Go ahead, resize this page!
Rebar is a tool for rapid development. Get started fast with CSS best practices, a well-structured grid that makes mobile consideration easy, an organized file structure and super basic UI elements like lightly styled forms, buttons, tabs and more.
Rebar is not a UI framework. It's a development kit that provides the most basic styles as a foundation, but is ready to adopt whatever your design or style is.
Rebar's base grid is a variation of the 960 grid system. The syntax is simple and it's effective cross browser, but the awesome part is that it also has the flexibility to go mobile like a champ. Go ahead, resize the browser and watch as the layout reacts!

The typography of Rebar is designed to create a strong hierarchy with basic styles. The primary font is Open Sans, but the font stack can be easily changed with just a couple adjustments. Regular paragraphs are set at a 14px base with 21px line height.
This is a blockquote style example. It stands out, and it is awesome!

Rebar uses a lot of media queries to serve the scalable grid, but also for the convenience of styling your site on different size screens. Rebar's media queries are almost exclusively targeted at max and min widths rather than device sizes or orientations. The advantage of this is browsers and future mobile devices that don't map to exact set dimensions will still benefit from the styles. That being said, all of the queries were written to be optimal on Apple iOS devices. The built in media queries include:
