Introduction

(English/中文)

LCDesign (LC's Design) is a UI component framework for building LCUI application, it provides basic styles for typography and elements, simple layout system, CSS components and utilities. Its CSS code is based Bootstrap, so its usage is basically the same as Boostrap.

Note: This is not a component library for the web front end, you can't use the web browser to experience the effect, the correct way is to download the source code, then build it, and then run the demo.
