Nanite is a nice little framework that could probably be added to the list for PHP.

Partial.js has been renamed to total.js https://github.com/totaljs/framework

There are quite some server and client web frameworks implemented in Rust already: https://github.com/flosse/rust-web-framework-comparison#comparison . Would these fit into this list?

Afro is a routing framework I created, that just recently let's you use named parameters.

I think this is lightweight,

since you've added Phalcon, might as well add Yaf (supposedly even faster)

Looks like thee CSS framework Kube added an MIT license. Right now Kube has "Unknown" in the license column. Great job with this by the way! Had fun checking everything out.

skelJS is a lightweight frontend framework for building responsive sites and apps.

The creator says 21kb, but I think its 7kb..

i think the markdown parser ate it

Add the two libraries the list of JavaScript frameworks:

• http://angularjs.org/
• http://jquery.com/

Frameworks do inversion of control.

Backbone is a library. It's a set of utility tools, it doesn't invert control at all.

That's like calling jQuery a framework.

I don't know if meteor would make any sense to have here, considering it is a full-stack framework and you are pretty much tied to the infrastructure it imposes. On the other hand, something like Express would make sense I the web framework for JS section. Thoughts?

Search 'dancer' and the url of first result should be 'http://www.perldancer.org' instead of 'http://www.perldancer.org]'

main.css = 4.25KiB (minified and gzipped)

Are there any critera which framework is a minimalisitc one?
Somethink like this: https://github.com/madrobby/microjs.com#rules ?

Some of the frameworks use kb and some use kB. I'm not sure if they're all actually in kB or if they need conversion, but it's unclear.

Also, do Kube and KNACSS really have the same repository? Their links are the same.

Hi! I'm the author of the Min framework, and it's nowhere near 4.9 KiB. (Unminified and uncompressed with all options selected, it's 4.1 KiB max!) It's 3 KiB minified, and it's less than 1 KiB minified and gzipped. (The YUI compressor says that it's 1009 bytes minified+gzipped, but when GitHub serves it up, it's 995 bytes minified+gzipped)

Could you please correct this problem? Min was listed as being 995 bytes earlier, but for some reason this was changed in the last commit.

I think it's unfair to compare Min's uncompressed and unminified size (which nobody will use - it's not even provided anywhere) to other frameworks' compressed and minified sizes.

How about Tailwind CSS? https://tailwindcss.com/

A utility-first CSS framework for rapidly building custom designs.

You should add https://github.com/kballenegger/kenji to the Ruby section. :)

I want to add my projects, http://github.com/ZDroid/mistype (minimal CSS framework) and http://github.com/ZDroid/hackwork (PHP microframework), to list.

I noticed some CSS projects are listed as gzipped, while others are not. Pure is 4.4 KB gzipped. See the GitHub repo or website for that info.

Reviewing the lists, I discovered that some frameworks are no longer available and others have links to their documentation pages changed.
I want to make the corrections by changing the links and removing some items.
Do I need to create a branch for these changes or can I use the master branch?

Current:

A list of minimalist frameworks(simple and lightweight).

It should be:

A list of minimalist frameworks (simple and lightweight).

Please update description as it's in the readme.

Some say nothing, some mention minified/gzipped and probably a lot are outdated. In my opinion it would be better to use the bundlephobia shield:

And maybe something to indicate how up-to-date the library is:

I think Backbone.js (http://backbonejs.org/) perfectly fits under minimalist JS framework

You might want to update/remove the link to responsablecss.com and/or perhaps contact the developers?

Hi, I am the developer of mini.css, a minimal, responsive CSS framework.
You can check it out here: https://github.com/Chalarangelo/mini.css
Filesize is about 7KB (minified + gzipped). I'd love to get more people involved with it, so if you feel like it's worthwhile, please add it to the list!

Phalcon is a framework written as a C-extension for php who comes in 3 sizes: micro, simple and multi-module.

Where micro is really minimal like slim.

It works with depency injection and lazy loading to grow just to the size the the project needs. It is under the new BSD license.
