- It is a Sass-based, small framework that operates with just a few utility classes.
- It takes advantage of the Sass members: variables, mixins, and functions.
- It embraces Sass modules, so it uses @use and namespacing for import.
- Spruce is a good choice if you prefer writing CSS instead of HTML. It uses just a few classic utility classes.
- It is a relatively small (~7kb gzipped) framework with a smaller learning curve. The codebase is small but can add more to any project with the available mixins and functions.
- It is that bunch of code you keep manually carrying from project to project.
- It is themeable. You can create different themes using CSS custom properties like a dark one.
- The generated CSS code is separated from the framework. You can use only the tools (variables, mixins, functions) in your project [without the generated styles](https://sprucecss.com/docs/elements/generators).
- Include just a few components. For UI, we have a separate project named [Spruce UI](/ui/getting-started/introduction), where you can find drop-in components.
- [It comes with dark-mode](https://sprucecss.com/docs/customization/themes) (or any theme mode) support. It uses CSS custom properties, so it isn’t that hard to create a new color theme.
- It doesn’t come with a classical grid system.## How to start with Spruce?
Firstly, we suggest checking out the documentation, precisely the [installation page](https://sprucecss.com/docs/getting-started/installation).
There is nothing new if you previously used Sass unless you don’t know the newer [module system](https://sass-lang.com/blog/the-module-system-is-launched).
We made a [Spruce CSS Eleventy Starter](https://github.com/conedevelopment/sprucecss-eleventy-starter), a boilerplate starter template based on the popular static site generator 11ty. It includes a basic compile setup and, of course, Spruce CSS. You can find more information about it on GitHub.
