Using the Framework: Get Started
Default Configuration
The goal of the default configuration of components was to have a html5-ready, cross-browser (and lagacy-browser) compatible quick-start boilerplate. To this purpose, several libraries are enabled by default.
Normalize.css
"Normalize.css" is a customisable CSS file that makes browsers render all elements more consistently and in line with modern standards. Source: https://github.com/necolas/normalize.css/
YAML
A modular CSS framework for truly flexible, accessible and responsive websites. Source: http://www.yaml.de
Modernizr
Modernizr tests which native CSS3 and HTML5 features are available in the current UA and makes the results available to you in two ways: as properties on a global Modernizr object, and as classes on the <html> element. This information allows you to progressively enhance your pages with a granular level of control over the experience. Source: http://modernizr.com
html5shiv
Source code adds new HTML5 elements (which is simple code), but also supports printing HTML5 elements and includes the default styles for HTML5 elements, like block on article and section. Source: http://code.google.com/p/html5shiv/
Hint: html5shiv is included in modernizr. So only the component "modernizr" is enabled. You can, if you want, disable modernizr and enable the standalone component "html5shiv".
jQuery and jQuery-UI
To built cross-browser compatible interactive webapplications the two popular javascript libraries jQuery and jQuery-UI are per default included.
