Blueprint CSS is a CSS framework aimed at accelerating layout and typographic design by providing robust base styles, grid systems, and reusable UI components. It combines normalized defaults with helpful utilities—such as column layouts, form styling, and typography helpers—so developers can build responsive sites with less repetitive CSS. Because it’s designed as a structural foundation rather than a themed UI kit, it’s easy to layer branding and custom design on top without fighting the base styles. The framework includes mixins, modifier classes, and responsive breakpoints so layouts adapt fluidly across screen sizes. By starting with a consistent baseline, Blueprint CSS reduces cross-browser quirks and gives designers confidence in spacing, proportion, and element alignment. Teams often use it as the “CSS backbone” of internal tools, web products, or component libraries.

Bootstrap 3 for Sass is a Sass-powered version of Bootstrap 3, ready to drop right into your Sass powered applications. This is Bootstrap 3. For Bootstrap 4 use the Bootstrap rubygem if you use Ruby, and the main repo otherwise. Get the lowdown on the key pieces of Bootstrap's infrastructure, including our approach to better, faster, stronger web development. Bootstrap makes use of certain HTML elements and CSS properties that require the use of the HTML5 doctype. Include it at the beginning of all your projects. With Bootstrap 2, we added optional mobile friendly styles for key aspects of the framework. With Bootstrap 3, we've rewritten the project to be mobile friendly from the start. Instead of adding on optional mobile styles, they're baked right into the core. In fact, Bootstrap is mobile first. Mobile first styles can be found throughout the entire library instead of in separate files.

Bourbon is a library of Sass mixins and functions that are designed to make you a more efficient style sheet author. It’s not recommended that you modify Bourbon’s files directly as it will make updating to future versions difficult, by overwriting your custom changes or causing merge conflicts. Import Bourbon at the beginning of application.scss. Any project styles that utilize Bourbon’s features must be imported after Bourbon. Bourbon supports Internet Explorer 11+ and the latest versions of Chrome, Firefox, Safari, and Edge. Bourbon is maintained by the thoughtbot design team. It is funded by thoughtbot, inc. and the names and logos for thoughtbot are trademarks of thoughtbot, inc. You can target installation into a specific directory using the path flag. Bourbon is copyright © 2011-2020 thoughtbot, inc. It is free software, and may be redistributed under the terms specified in the license.

Breeze is a build and test automation framework for software developers. It is written in Ruby and can be extended to include tasks that interact with other tools such as source code repositories, compilers, test frameworks, and installers.

Bricklayer is a Ruby web application framework that uses a component architecture very loosely based on that of perl's HTML::Mason. To see the proof of concept for Bricklayer, check out the Liber RDF Portal project.

CanCan is an authorization library for Ruby on Rails that helps manage user permissions in a clean and consistent way. It centralizes all authorization logic in a single Ability class, where you define what actions each type of user can or cannot perform on different resources. Developers then use helpers like authorize! in controllers or can? in views to enforce those rules without scattering permission logic across the application. It supports defining permissions using conditions, allowing granular access based on attributes like ownership or role. Because it abstracts authorization cleanly, applications stay easier to read, test, and maintain as business rules evolve. Though no longer actively maintained in its original form, CanCan inspired forks and successors (such as CanCanCan) that continue to be widely used in Rails projects.

A Smarty-like template library for Ruby.

A remote server automation and deployment tool written in Ruby. Capistrano extends the Rake DSL with methods specific to running commands on() servers. Capistrano is written in Ruby, but it can easily be used to deploy any language. If your language or framework has special deployment requirements, Capistrano can easily be extended to support them. Capistrano is bundled as a Ruby Gem. It requires Ruby 2.0 or newer. Capistrano can be installed as a standalone Gem, or bundled into your application. It is recommended to fix the version number when using Capistrano, and is therefore recommended to use an appropriate bundler. The capistrano-rails gem includes extras specifically designed for Ruby on Rails, specifically Asset Pipeline Support and Database Migration Support. Capistrano deploys using SSH. Thus, you must be able to SSH (ideally with keys and ssh-agent) from the deployment system to the destination system for Capistrano to work.

Capybara is a Ruby acceptance testing framework that simulates how a real user would interact with a web application. It allows developers to write tests that drive browsers, checking for expected content, links, buttons, and form interactions. Capybara integrates with drivers like Selenium, Rack::Test, and headless browsers such as Cuprite or WebKit, letting tests run in real browsers or lightweight simulation environments. Its DSL emphasizes natural language-like syntax, such as visit, click_button, and fill_in, which makes tests readable and expressive. Capybara also handles asynchronous JavaScript and dynamic content, waiting for elements to appear or actions to complete before assertions run. By bridging test suites with actual browser behavior, Capybara helps ensure that web apps behave correctly from a user’s perspective.

CodingDojo to learn, explore, practice and test technologies. Along with CodingKatas there are also challenges. The main purpose of this project is to register and drive software craftsmanship and polyglot programming even further.

Compass is a stylesheet authoring framework built on top of Sass that provides a rich set of mixins, functions, and helpers for writing maintainable CSS. It offers abstractions for vendor prefixes, cross-browser compatibility fixes, and reusable UI patterns like grids, buttons, and typography helpers. With Compass, developers can write cleaner Sass code that compiles into consistent CSS across browsers without hand-coding workarounds. The framework also includes a command-line tool for compiling Sass, managing sprite sheets, and integrating with build workflows. It was widely adopted in the era before modern CSS standards caught up with mixins and variables, helping developers speed up styling while reducing redundancy. While less dominant today, Compass remains an important historical tool that influenced the evolution of Sass and frontend best practices.
