What for do you need a framework? For buttons? For the grid? You most likely have to adjust them anyways, so why not make a clean approach without the bloat (in a sense of coding style [I'm very much into BEM]) of a framework?

For me I always start with a framework because then I have easy access to templates.
yeah, mostly for the design part and CSS quirks among browsers. I do want to start with just sass and flexbox only though, but don't know how much hassle it will be.

Thanks for mentioning BEM, do you use it with sass?

I use SASS mixins specifically instead of BEM: this keeps styling out of my HTML (no visual classes to change) at the expense of a few bytes.
I wouldn't have a clue where to start. Far easier just to grab a pre-made framework like this.
