CSS framework

CSS framework

Hello, 

 

Does anyone know wether 2.0 themes use a CSS framework or not or is it all custom CSS? I know shopify removed SASS from its stack so does that mean most of these new themes use basic CSS Grid for its grid system and variables to in place of SASS? 

 

Many thanks in advance!

This is an accepted solution.

It depends on the theme. Dawn and any free Shopify-made theme for 2.0 use pure CSS. However for the paid themes on the Theme Store and third party sites the developers can use whatever they want (especially the third parties). You should be able to check this quite easy on the theme demos as well. Tailwind seems to keep creeping up usefulness for Shopify Themes!

Thanks Brandon, makes sense, i'm customising a free theme and find using pure css a lot less confusing than using a framework, but will also check out tailwind.
