I hate heavy and opinionated frontend framework like bootstrap. I have been using Pure css and plain css/js/html to do some prototype and really enjoyed the process, and the only concern is I'm not great at design, so all the prototypes I did don't feel like modern and slick. I started trying Web Starter Kit[1] recently and really like it, it's light with principle of "don't get in your way", it has very fine default design feeling yet still allow you to easily customize the look and feel. Toolkit looks like it's even lightweight and share the similar "minimal" principle, I will give it a try and see if it provides enough out of box, and I hope to see more of this kind of light yet modern frontend framework.

It's kinda like Google's Web Starter Kit[1], isn't ? For me, it's really helpful when we can use some guidance from great players in the industry when choosing which framework to use. We recently forked Web Starter Kit, added some bower instructions, integrated Twitter BootStraped and now we've got some internal guidelines for new SPA. [1] https://github.com/google/web-starter-kit
