CSS Zen Garden

Abstraction: CSS design showcase demonstrating style-only transformations of fixed HTML

Key points:

• CSS Zen Garden demonstrates that the same HTML can be styled in radically different ways by swapping only the external CSS file — HTML is never modified.
• Created by Dave Shea; community designers submit CSS (and graphics) to show the full expressive power of CSS-based layout.
• Submissions must validate CSS, target IE9+ and modern Chrome/Firefox/iOS/Android, and release CSS under a Creative Commons BY-NC-SA license.
• Focuses on CSS 1 & 2 with limited CSS 3/4; "functional, practical CSS" rather than bleeding-edge tricks.
• Serves simultaneously as inspiration, learning gallery, and proof of browser CSS implementation quality.
• The book "Zen Garden" (published via Amazon) accompanies the project.
