Gumby vs Semantic UI: What are the differences?
Developers describe Gumby as "A Flexible, Responsive CSS Framework - Powered by Sass". Create rapid and logical page layout and app prototypes with a flexible and responsive grid system and UI kit. On the other hand, Semantic UI is detailed as "A UI Component library implemented using a set of specifications designed around natural language". Semantic empowers designers and developers by creating a shared vocabulary for UI.
Gumby and Semantic UI can be primarily classified as "Front-End Frameworks" tools.
Some of the features offered by Gumby are:
- Syntactically Awesome - Gumby 2 is built with the power of Sass. Sass is a powerful CSS preprocessor which allows us to develop Gumby itself with much more speed — and gives you new tools to quickly customize and build on top of the Gumby Framework.
- Brilliantly Flexible - Gumby 2 is an amazing responsive CSS Framework. Websites built today must be mobile friendly in order to survive. Why have two different sites for mobile and desktop when you can have your main site be one size fits all? Gumby Framework is also incredibly customizable
- it’s as easy as download, tweak, deploy!
On the other hand, Semantic UI provides the following key features:
- Build Responsive Layouts Easier
- Self Explanatory
- Tag ambivalent
Gumby and Semantic UI are both open source tools. Semantic UI with 45.9K GitHub stars and 4.84K forks on GitHub appears to be more popular than Gumby with 2.95K GitHub stars and 479 GitHub forks.
