โก Lightweight - Cirrus consists of a single minified file using only 10.3kb and 17.2kb respectively.๐ Beautiful Components - Construct your web app or website using by composing beautifully designed components.๐ Clean - Styles are easy to follow and written using BEM Notation.๐ฑ Responsive - Fully responsive by design.- ๐ข Modular - Import what you need.

๐ jQuery
- jQuery is not needed in order to use this framework.
