Extend The Capabilities Of CSS With CSScaffold
16
Oct
CSScaffold is a PHP-powered CSS framework which will improve the development time by extending the CSS language.
A great thing about the framework is, "it is written exactly like CSS", so, no need to learn a new syntax.
How it works?
CSScaffold sits in your CSS directory, & uses .htaccess files to automatically pass any CSS file through itself first for processing/caching which all happens in the background.
Some Features:
Like mentioned, CSScaffold improves the language itself. This happens by making the usage of:
- constants
- mixins
- nested Selectors
- expressions
- caching and gzipping
possible.
It has a plugin architecture which makes adding new features possible & easier.
Requirements: PHP 5+

Very interesting in the theory, but really poor in practice. What’s to create a css system in php? CSS is server language free…
Why to tie it to a server language? What happens if later you want to use another server language (python, jsp, etc.)
In think it is great to produce css files on development enviroment from frameworks, latter you can use the final result on real sites.
