NES.css – NES-Style CSS Framework

Re:NES.css – NES-Style CSS Framework by ron0c on Monday February 01, 2021 @07:53PM (#25996223)

I am not a web developer, but I don't understand what is needed to be 'installed' to use a css? Could someone explain why the default install isn't a clone of a nes.css?

The tl;dr is it's using SCSS, which is a language that generates CSS for you[0], and therefore needs a build step. They haven't bothered to put the build output into their repo because anyone who wants the minified file can build it themselves or use wget to download it from the CDN.

[0] Why would you want to generate CSS, I hear you ask? Check out https://sass-lang.com/guide
