UX Design Techdegree Student 15,801 PointsResponsive grid with Sass and Compass?
So I know there are few options out there like susy and 960 plugin for compass. I can also create my own grid Scss file. Just want to hear different opinions from your experience. What do you like, what kind of work flow you prefer when youre working with grid system and with sass/compass.

Generally I use Foundation by ZURB as I can't fault their grid system which works absolutely flawlessly no matter which project I use it on, of course Foundation isn't just a grid framework but you can just only include it when using the Ruby gem.
Another grid which I've used once it Neat by the Bourbon developers which uses a programmatic approach which I don't mind but I much prefer classes over extra CSS as it's easier to change a class than what it is to change the Sass, compile and deploy.
If I had one more I could pick from it would be Bootstrap, I personally don't like how much extra markup it uses but the grid is pretty good but I would choose Foundation over it any day.
