## Features
| | Feature | Description |

| :oncoming_bus: | Rock-solid build tasks | We use gulp & webpack to deliver the best task runner & developer experience for your project |
| :eyeglasses: | Unopinionated & extendable | A few common UI elements, a grid & some other base styles. The rest is up to you. |
| :crystal_ball: | Future proof | Build complex layouts with flexbox & use ES2015 (ES6) for your javascript. |
| :angry: | Lean & mean | CSS: 8.68 kB gzipped

It is a boilerplate after all :wink: |

## Browser compatibility
Kickoff has been tested in the following browsers:

| [Chrome](https://www.google.com/chrome/) (latest) | [Firefox](https://www.mozilla.org/en-GB/firefox/new/) (latest) | [Safari](https://www.apple.com/safari/) (latest) | [Edge](http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/microsoft-edge) (latest) | [Opera](https://www.opera.com/) (latest) |
|:----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------:|:-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------:|:----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------:|------------------------------------------------------------------------|:-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------:|
| Chrome | Firefox | Safari | Microsoft Edge | Opera |

We also support older versions of Internet Explorer but the support is limited. For example, the Kickoff grid relies on flexbox so Modernizr is needed to detect for it and then we can provide a fallback.
