The compass port of blueprint to sass is at v0.9. A basic online customized generator using compass on top of sinatra or rails would take about a day... If anyone wants to take a swing at making one, I'll gladly help out, but I don't really want to own it -- I've got my hands full at the moment.
I would point out that compass is pretty darn easy for new users to use: $ sudo gem install chriseppstein-compass $ compass -f blueprint my_project $ cd my_project edit src/_base.sass to adjust the grid parameters if you like. edit the src/screen.sass file and follow the instructions there if you want the normal non-semantic class names Then when you're ready for production: $ compass -s compressed --force You can easily set up compass to compile stylesheets directly within your project and use it to manage your own sass stylesheets as well. Sass is an awesome syntax for authoring stylesheets and compass makes it available to everyone -- not just ruby projects.
