## Quick start
There are 4 ways to get started with pico.css:
### Install manually
[Download Pico](https://github.com/picocss/pico/archive/refs/heads/main.zip) and link `/css/pico.min.css` in the `` of your website.
```html
```
### Usage from CDN
Alternatively, you can use [jsDelivr CDN](https://www.jsdelivr.com/package/npm/@picocss/pico) to link pico.css.
```html
```
### Install with NPM
```shell
npm install @picocss/pico
```
Or
```shell
yarn add @picocss/pico
```
Then, import Pico into your SCSS file with [@use](https://sass-lang.com/documentation/at-rules/use):
```SCSS
@use "pico";
```
### Install with Composer
```shell
composer require picocss/pico
```
### Starter HTML template
```HTML
Hello world!
Hello world!
```
## Class-less version
Pico provides a `.classless` version.
In this version, ``, ``, and `` inside `` act as containers to define a centered or a fluid viewport.
Use the default `.classless` version if you need centered viewports:
```html
```
Or use the `.fluid.classless` version if you need a fluid container:
```html
```
Then just write pure HTML, and it should look great:
```html
Hello, world!
Hello, world!
```
## Limitations
Pico CSS can be used without custom CSS for quick or small projects. However, it’s designed as a starting point, like a “reset CSS on steroids”. As Pico does not integrate any helpers or utilities `.classes`, this minimal CSS framework requires SCSS or CSS knowledge to build large projects.
