Marx is a classless CSS framework and reset that styles plain semantic HTML with a single stylesheet link, requiring no class names, build step, or JavaScript. It supports automatic light/dark mode via light-dark() and theming through --marx-* custom properties at zero specificity.

Use cases

• style a small website without writing CSS
• quickly make a plain HTML page look polished
• add a CSS reset with sensible typography
• get automatic dark mode without JavaScript
• prototype pages with no build step
• theme a stylesheet with CSS custom properties

When to choose

• building small or simple sites with semantic HTML
• you want zero-class styling and no JavaScript
• you need a lightweight alternative to heavy CSS frameworks
• you want easy theming via CSS variables

When to avoid

• building complex component-based UIs needing utility classes or components
• projects requiring a design system with custom layouts
• apps already using a full CSS framework like Tailwind or Bootstrap
