HOW IT STARTED
Where the idea came from, told properly.
It started at 10 in the morning, in an analysis and programming course on Java. We had an HTML and CSS practice session, and our teacher showed us how far you can push those two languages, using a few examples from https://github.com/gevendra2004/gevstack. What was in there looked far too good to just look at.
davoker started practising on his computer. Twenty minutes later, he called me to show me what he had built: it was something else. So I asked him: why don't we set up a library? Building components is his thing, and that is where he stands out: obsessive about every detail, with ideas nobody else comes up with.
fatmaerm saw it from the start: he told us there are already plenty of HTML and CSS libraries, but for anyone just beginning that is not the same thing. I'm in: it is real practice, and it settles the foundations of both languages.
davoker signed up with one sentence: "I'm in, this thing is fascinating." And just like that, almost without noticing, a library started.
