A base set of SCSS stylesheets to start projects. No frameworks or learning curve, just a set of empty files to be customised as you need and a couple of handy mixins and functions.
We work with plain HMTL, Ruby on Rails and PHP projects at season, so we've been working on a (really) simple structure for all scenarios.
We keep this stuff isolated so we can integrate it in any project. By doing it this way, we can easily fit this with middleman for static sites and easily integrate it with Grunt, Glup or whatever.
This is not a framework, but just a structure to start hacking styles with no dependencies at all.
Feel free to add any automation layer over this.

As an example, take a related news block. 4 columns and tag list in large viewports, 1 column without tag list in small viewports.
You would add the media query to show/hide the tag list in a file called component/_news--item.scss
You would add the media query to fit the number of columns in a layout/_news--related.scss
file.
This codebase has been baked by @xavi_b and is inspired by a bunch of lectures and conversations about structures.
