The classname reflects what property and value are applied.\n\n```css\n.ta-center {\n  text-align: center;\n}\n```\n\nStyling is achieved by combining multiple classes in HTML rather then writing, and possibly repeating, CSS.\n\n```html\n\u003cdiv class=\"ta-center fs-30 lh-1.2 fw-bold\"\u003e\n  \u003c!--  --\u003e\n\u003c/div\u003e\n```\n\nBackbreeze provides classes for a lot of CSS properties in the spec. So that a lot can be achieved by combining classes. Some benefits of this approach are:\n\n- Fast development\n- Small CSS files (when [processed correctly](/using-in-production/#remove-unused-css-with-purgecss))\n- No need to worry about naming things\n- Flexibility to make exceptions / variations of componets any time\n\n## Why Sass?\n\n[Sass](https://sass-lang.com/) is a widely used industry standard for authoring stylesheets. In contrast to combining different PostCSS plugins it has a [full language spec](https://sass-lang.com/documentation) that provides a solid authoring experience and makes it easy to port code between projects. PostCSS is great to process the generated CSS and its use is encouraged when using [Backbreeze in production](/using-in-production/).\n\n## Inspired by [Tailwind](https://tailwindcss.com/)\n\nBackbreeze is inspired by the [Tailwind CSS](https://tailwindcss.com/) framework. It aims to be an alternative that you can drop into existing projects that use Sass.\n\n## Who is this library for?\n\n- Developers that enjoy working with utility classes and appreciate the approach.\n- Developers that like to work with Sass.\n- Developers that what to start migrating existing Sass projects to use utility classes.\n\n## Backbreeze in production\n\n- https://www.gbm-telecom.ch/\n- https://www.bold.ch/\n","project_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2Fnicolas-cusan%2Fbackbreeze","html_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/projects/github.com%2Fnicolas-cusan%2Fbackbreeze","lists_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2Fnicolas-cusan%2Fbackbreeze/lists"}
