Nice post! One thing tho: are you sure that Semantic UI is a good option here? I just checked their github page and their last commit was on Oct 21, 2018.

I would also not recommend Semantic UI because there is no ongoing development.

I would recommend Fomantic UI (fomantic-ui.com/) it`s a fork of Semantic UI to continue the development.

Fomantic UI is similar like a Semantic UI ya but, Fomantic ui have more components as a compare to Semantic. but again we have to say Semantic is more popular. so we suggest you Semantic UI.

But is it still even being maintained and contributed to?

Oh and now I see why Fomantic-UI was brought up. It's a fork 🤦 Honestly, I don't love semantic et al anyway -- very long winded code imo. I really liked the spirit of the naming conventions but gee the code was very long to my mind and that would result in large files. The theming idea he had was groundbreaking at the time.

ya I am sure about Semantic UI because this framework has lots of UI-components. even we also like one feature of this framework is the loader. This framework has own custom loader we really like this and yea their have lots of elements to use.

Yup, exactly my thoughts. I didn't like the length of code scripts either. But that's my opinion. The final results looked nice and the theming ideas were pretty groundbreaking at the time.
