mlut – Atomic CSS toolkit with Sass and ergonomics

Hi HN community! I want to tell you about my open source project: mlut. This is an Atomic CSS toolkit with Sass and ergonomics for creating styles of any complexity. Main features: - Strong naming convention - Almost arbitrary by design - Great ergonomics - Handy extension A detailed breakdown of the features can be found in the readme on GitHub.

What it does

In the maker’s words, at launch

Hi HN community! I want to tell you about my open source project: mlut. This is an Atomic CSS toolkit with Sass and ergonomics for creating styles of any complexity. Main features: - Strong naming convention - Almost arbitrary by design - Great ergonomics - Handy extension A detailed breakdown of the features can be found in the readme on GitHub. And if you want to dive deeper into the technical part, check out this article: https://dev.to/mr150/atomic-css-deep-dive-1hee. This is a transcript of my talk at the tier 1 JavaScript conference (HolyJS). In the meantime, I'll list a couple more features of the tool: - Written in Sass and includes all its benefits - JIT (on-demand) and AOT mods are available - Fully customizable: change tokens, utilities names and any settings - Easy to integrate in existing project. No name collisions with your CSS in the most projects. Increasing specificity in one line or for one utility. If you want to learn a bit about the history of the project, you can check out this article: https://dev.to/mr150/mlut-a-new-word-in-the-utility-first-cs... I would appreciate any feedback, and especially stars on GitHub!

    Mlut – Tailwind CSS alternative for custom websites and creative codingFeb 2026 · mlut.style · ▲5

    Hey HN community! I want to tell you about my open source project: mlut. This is the best CSS framework for custom websites and creative coding. It is similar to Tailwind in that it is based on the Atomic CSS approach, but in some respects it surpasses all popular analogues. mlut helps to create projects with individual and non-standard designs, where old-school frameworks are not suitable and LLMs perform poorly. The project is the result of in-depth research and over 1,000 hours of work. Details about the study can be found here:…

    Hey there HN! We’re Joe and Stopa, and today we’re open sourcing InstantDB, a client-side database that makes it easy to build real-time and collaborative apps like Notion and Figma. Building modern apps these days involves a lot of schleps. For a basic CRUD app you need to spin up servers, wire up endpoints, integrate auth, add permissions, and then marshal data from the backend to the frontend and back again. If you want to deliver a buttery smooth user experience, you’ll need to add optimistic updates and rollbacks. We do these steps over and over for every feature we build, which can…
