## What it is
Gridforms is a tiny CSS/Sass front-end library for building dense, grid-based data entry forms in web applications. It handles the layout boilerplate via simple HTML data attributes and offers a Sass mixin for customization.

## Use cases
- build dense grid-based data entry forms
- make long forms fit above the fold with less scrolling
- create responsive forms that stack fields on mobile
- print well-formatted blank or filled forms on paper
- customize form styling via a Sass mixin

## When to choose
- you need compact, keyboard-friendly data entry forms for a web app
- you want a lightweight CSS-only solution with simple markup
- you need forms that print nicely

## When to avoid
- you need full form validation or state management logic
- you want a modern component-based form library for React/Vue
- you need active development or recent browser feature support
