I mean, I would not be criticizing it's lack of responsiveness if the author did not claim it was responsive. But they did: https://svija.love/faq#inpage1
Also, this is not really that novel. Absolute-positioning (or ECP as the author calls it) has been a thing for forever. E.g. Flash websites, Dreamweaver, Wix, Android apps using AbsoluteLayout, etc...
But there's a reason why the entire internet moved towards responsive based layouts. Because although absolute-positioning makes websites/apps super easy to create, it results in sites/apps that have many usability concerns. Most of these concerns are fundamentally unsolvable.
To be clear, I still think the framework is useful, in fact, I may even have some of my non-techy friends use it to make their websites because a website that has bad usability is better than no website at all.
