readable.css

readable.css is a CSS framework, but not like the others you've seen. Rather than helping you build a sitewide design, readable.css provides a base default that is both sensible and beautiful. Out of the box features include:

  • Light and dark mode (manually or via prefers-color-scheme)
    • High contrast support (manually or prefers-contrast: high)
  • Responsive design
  • Vertical rhythm
  • Headers, footers, and navigation bars
  • Beautiful images, blockquotes, asides, tables, and forms
  • Text justification (off by default)
  • Native font support (serif, sans-serif, or monospace)

Features you will intentionally not find:

  • Flashy animations
  • Custom fonts
  • Utility classes
  • Anything that overrides your users' browser settings

The key design principle of readable.css is consistency. Colors, font-style, border widths, line heights, and everything else are consistent through the entire site.

Sites Using readable.css

If you have a site you're using readable.css on, submit an issue to tell us about it and we may add it here! Be sure to add a testimonial; we're considering adding a section with testimonials to the demo page, and if we like yours we'll add it when we do so!
