Developers generally like Pure CSS for small projects but call it too minimal compared with modern frameworks.
“I usually like Pure CSS,”
Compare Purecss with each alternative.
Utility-first CSS with far larger ecosystem and tooling
Batteries-included components when minimal isn't enough
Flexbox framework, lightweight but more complete
Modern CSS alone may be all you need

Free, tiny CSS framework — great for simple sites, too minimal for serious app UIs. Tailwind or Bootstrap fit bigger needs.
