## What it is
Semantic Grid System is a CSS grid library that generates grid layouts via LESS, SCSS, or Stylus mixins, letting developers set column widths, gutters, and responsive breakpoints without unsemantic .grid_x classes in markup. It targets page layout and responsive design workflows in frontend web development.

## Use cases
- create a responsive css grid layout without extra classes
- set custom column and gutter widths for a grid
- switch grid units between pixels and percentages
- build responsive page layouts with less or scss
- avoid unsemantic grid classes in html markup

## When to choose
- you use LESS, SCSS, or Stylus and want a mixin-based semantic grid
- you need pixel or percentage column units with responsive breakpoints
- you want grid styling kept out of your HTML markup

## When to avoid
- you are starting a new project and can use native CSS Grid or Flexbox
- you need an actively maintained library with recent updates
- you want a utility-class grid system like Bootstrap's

## Facets

- function: css-framework, ui-components
- domain: web-development, frontend, web-design
- platform: cross-platform
