## What it is
Wing is a minimal, lightweight CSS framework (about 2-5kb) that automatically styles HTML elements with clean, modern designs, requiring almost no classes to learn. It includes typography, a 12-column grid, buttons, and form styling, and can be installed via npm or a CDN link tag.

## Use cases
- style a small project without writing custom CSS
- add a clean base stylesheet to a prototype quickly
- get a lightweight grid and form styling without a heavy framework
- bootstrap a minimalist landing page design
- replace Bootstrap with something tiny for simple sites
- give a static site modern default styling with one link tag

## When to choose
- you want automatic element styling with minimal class learning
- bundle size matters and you only need basic styling, a grid, and forms
- you're building a small project, prototype, or landing page
- you prefer a boilerplate stylesheet over a component framework

## When to avoid
- you need a full component library with JavaScript widgets
- you require extensive theming, utility classes, or design tokens
- the project needs active maintenance and frequent updates
- you need accessibility features or complex layout systems beyond a simple 12-column grid
