Ranked in these QuestionsQuestion Ranking
Pros
Pro Flexbox-based
The whole framework is built on flexbox and works really well on most platforms.
Pro Active developer
The developer is actively maintaining the project and responding to any issues and questions.
Pro Minimal
The framework is really tiny, under 7KB gzipped.
This is what makes mini.css stand out, because it looks like a pretty powerful library and it still is under 10KB.
Pro Responsive
It works great on all devices, mobile websites are really easy to develop and view.
Pro Style-agnostic
Few flavours so far, but there is a lot of space for customization.
Pro Great documentation
From basic syntax, templates, examples, customization to-dos and don'ts. The documentation is pretty great.
Pro Supports CSS custom properties (var)
No other framework supports CSS variables right now (as of November 2017). The latest alpha of mini.css supports this feature, making customization even easier.
Pro Accessible
ARIA rules are a priority and it works very well for all users.
Works really well with screenreaders.
Pro Scalable CSS transform and SVG shapes
WebUI includes scalable CSS transform shapes and scalable clip-path shapes.
Pro Supports build customisation
Build customisation allows components that aren't required to be excluded using SASS includes and grunt tasks.
Pro Full support for flexbox
WebUI includes a full range of flexbox classes, including breakpoint specific classes based on REM units.
Pro Multiple grid systems out of the box
WebUI includes a flexbox, a table, and standard grid systems. These grid types can be used in combination and together.
Pro Generic design
Every component is built to be generic and interchangeable. For example, there are no restrictions on where grids, containers, menu buttons, or dropdowns can be used.
Pro Powerful tooltip system
The tooltip system includes viewport boundary collision detection, auto positioning and auto sizing for small viewport areas, configurable boundary margins, and many behavioral settings, such as focus, hover, static, nohide.
Cons
Con Archived
Git repo has been archived so it's pretty unlikely to receive bug fixes or new features.
Con Not widely used
A large community is always an advantage especially for open source projects. It means better documentation, continued development, and lowers the possibility for the project to be abandoned in the future since the probability for someone from the community to keep maintaining it is larger if the community is larger.
Con Single developer
There is no team developing this framework, except one guy.
