7.css is a CSS framework that lets developers create user interfaces styled exactly like Windows 7, built on top of XP.css and 98.css. It uses semantic HTML and pure CSS without JavaScript, making it accessible and compatible with any frontend framework.

Why it matters: Enables nostalgic, faithful Windows 7 UI recreation with accessibility and no JavaScript dependency.

The big picture: Part of a lineage of Windows-themed CSS frameworks (98.css → XP.css → 7.css) preserving classic UI aesthetics.

Quick takeaway: Supports scoped styling, tree-shaking of components, and comprehensive UI elements like buttons, menus, windows, tabs, dialogs, and progress bars.

Commenters say: Many appreciate the detailed visuals and nostalgia, question legal risks from Microsoft, and discuss potential integration with frameworks like Electron and Tauri.
