A minimalist CSS framework that renders web pages entirely on a monospace font grid, giving documents a terminal-like aesthetic. It ships as an npm package with stylesheets that align text, tables, lists, and diagrams to character-sized grid steps.

Use cases

• style a blog or documentation site with a monospace terminal aesthetic
• render markdown documents as retro monospace web pages
• build a minimalist personal website with grid-aligned text
• make responsive pages that shrink in character-sized steps
• draw ASCII-style diagrams and trees aligned to a text grid

When to choose

• you want an all-monospace, terminal-inspired look for a content-focused site
• you publish Markdown/Pandoc documents and want consistent grid alignment
• you prefer semantic HTML with minimal JavaScript

When to avoid

• you need a modern proportional-font design system or component library
• you're building a complex interactive web application with rich UI components
• you need broad browser/component coverage beyond standard HTML elements
