So what is it?

This is a personal CSS stylesheet, the styling code that controls the visual look and feel of someone's blog. It's not a tool or framework, but rather a single author's design rules for how their blog should appear: colors, fonts, spacing, layouts, and other visual elements. If you were to visit this person's blog, the stylesheet is what makes it look the way it does. It's like the interior design plan for a website, it tells the browser how to render text, images, and other content in a visually coherent way. CSS (Cascading Style Sheets) is the standard language used to style web pages, and this is one person's specific implementation of it. The README is minimal and doesn't provide much context about the stylesheet's features or structure. But the likely use case is straightforward: this is shared publicly so that other people building their own blogs can look at how it's organized, borrow ideas, or adapt pieces of it for their own sites. Blog stylesheets are often shared this way in the developer community, it's a way of showing your design choices and letting others learn from or remix your work. Someone maintaining a personal blog who wants to understand how their site is styled, or a beginner learning CSS by studying real-world examples, might find this useful to browse. It's a relatively small project (15 stars suggests it's niche rather than widely adopted), and it's the kind of thing that gets value from being open source more through inspiration and education than through being a reusable library.
