{"id":17535,"library":"comand-frontend-framework","title":"CoManD Frontend Framework","description":"The CoManD Frontend-Framework is a pure HTML5/CSS3 styling solution designed for building responsive and accessible web projects. Currently at version 4.3.55, its development and release cadence are not publicly detailed, but the version number suggests active maintenance. Unlike JavaScript-heavy UI libraries, CoManD provides a clean, standards-based CSS foundation without requiring any JavaScript for its core functionality. It includes an Icomoon-based iconfont via the `comand-ui-iconfonts-dependency`, offering a comprehensive styling toolkit from typography and layout to component aesthetics. The framework aims to be scalable, suitable for diverse project sizes from small one-pagers to large web platforms, by leveraging modern CSS practices and a minimal, unopinionated approach to JavaScript integration. Its primary utility is to serve as a robust styling layer, leaving component logic to the developer's chosen JavaScript framework or vanilla implementation.","status":"active","version":"4.3.55","language":"javascript","source_language":"en","source_url":null,"tags":["javascript"],"install":[{"cmd":"npm install comand-frontend-framework","lang":"bash","label":"npm"},{"cmd":"yarn add comand-frontend-framework","lang":"bash","label":"yarn"},{"cmd":"pnpm add comand-frontend-framework","lang":"bash","label":"pnpm"}],"dependencies":[{"reason":"Provides the BaseIconfont (an Icomoon based iconfont) which is integrated into the framework's design.","package":"comand-ui-iconfonts-dependency","optional":false}],"imports":[{"note":"This (illustrative) path loads the framework's primary CSS file into a module bundler.
