CSS framework question.

When it comes to CSS frameworks and UI libraries, there are a ton of options if you use React and or have a modern build pipeline.

But what about frameworks that are usable as a single css file (no build) and customizable with CSS variables? I know about Bulma, Bootstrap, Open Props, and Pico. The rest I could name are fairly dated.

Anyone know of others?

As much as I love classless “frameworks,” I’m more thinking about ones that have a few pre-designed UI components.

I’m pretty bummed about the state of NaNoWriMo this year. I usually sift through the Adopt a Plot forum thread this time of year, but it seems the forums aren’t opening this year. Looks like the org imploded over some slimy people in the community and now the community aspect of it is dead.

I hate it when I think someone texted me and it turns out to be spam. It's happened so many times now that I'm not sure why my brain keeps giving me the dopamine hit from seeing the notification badge.

What is the simplest solution for persisting user data?

I frequently run into a situation where I’ve built a neat little frontend app but need to persist some user data. My first instinct is to stick it in local storage, which is cool and totally works. But it’s at risk of being deleted by the browser and it’s not portable to other browsers or devices.

Things I’ve used:

- PHP/MySQL
- PHP/SQLite
- NodeJS/SQLite
- JSON files
- Userbase (third-party service)
- I’ve even used paste.lol as a BE
