Baseline – framework built around the idea of a “real” baseline grid

Last Updated on March 13, 2022

Baseline is an open source designer framework built around the idea of a “real” baseline grid.

Baseline starts with several files to reset the browser’s default behavior, build a basic typographic layout, including style for HTML forms and new HTML 5 elements, and build a simple grid system.

Baseline is built with typographic standards in mind.

Features include:

• Seeks to correctly line up headlines, paragraphs, form labels and any other major elements on the page baseline.
• Grid composed of 4 basic columns, each column can be divided into 2 units.
• Comes in two different versions, one based on relative positioning, and one based on padding.
• PSD templates.
