Getting started

Quick start

Link pico.css manually or via CDN for a dependency-free setup, or use NPM or Composer for advanced usage.

There are 4 ways to get started with pico.css:

Install manually#

Download Pico and link /css/pico.min.css in the <head> of your website.

<link rel="stylesheet" href="css/pico.min.css" />

Usage from CDN#

Alternatively, you can use jsDelivr CDN to linkpico.min.css.

<link
  rel="stylesheet"
  href="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/npm/@picocss/pico@2/css/pico.min.css"
/>

Install with NPM#

npm install @picocss/pico

Or

yarn add @picocss/pico

Then, import Pico into your SCSS file with @use:

@use "pico";

Learn more about the customization with Sass.
