DictateCSS

An intuitive and very DRY CSS framework that lets you dictate styling with classes that behave as they are named.

Add this line to your application's Gemfile:

gem 'dictate_css'

And then execute:

$ bundle

Or install it yourself as:

$ gem install dictate_css

Run this in your console to create the styles in your vendor/assets/stylesheets directory

rails g dictate_css styles

Pick and choose which stylesheets to include in your asset pipeline. base is not optional.

# app/assets/stylesheets/application.css

*= require "dictate_css/base"
*= require "dictate_css/colors"
*= require "dictate_css/floating"
*= require "dictate_css/hide_show"

<div class="inline-block">
  My style is display: inline-block;
</div>

<div class="relative">
  My style is position: relative;
</div>

<div class="absolute">
  My style is position: absolute;
</div>

<div class="text-right">
  My style is text-align: right;
</div>

<div class="width-100">
  My style is width: 100%;
</div>

<div class="hide-on-mobile">
  My style is
  @media only screen and (max-width: 768px) {
    .hide-on-mobile {
      display: none;
    }
  }
</div>

To see all the possible styles you can look in your generated styles in vendor/assets/stylesheets/dictate_css. Or just look at the files here
