Baseline is a free to use CSS (Designer) Framework useful to easily develop a website with a pleasing grid and good typography. Baseline starts with several files to reset the default browser behavior. It builds a basic typographic layout (includes style for HTML forms & new HTML 5 elements) and a simple grid system. A nice feature of this designer framework is the fact that is uses the font metrics to line up headlines, paragraphs, form labels and any other major elements on the page baseline, creating a harmonious layout.
