I think bootstrap (and similar frameworks) are the closest thing we have. It makes simple tasks like "put these things in a nice grid" or "center this thing" so much easier than if you were using raw CSS. Bootstrap gets a lot of flak for its styles, but I think its real value is in making layout somewhat sane.
