I continue to be surprised that new platform-level CSS features seem to be rolling out so fast that framework and library abstractions on top of CSS are having a hard time keeping up.

Feels unprecedented but it’s a huge vote in favor of Writing CSS as CSS in CSS.

@zachleat browsers peaked with <blink><font color=red>the font tag</font></blink>.

@zachleat concerns that you are free to put in a <marquee> tag and i'll be sure to read them as they scroll past.</marquee> (Best wishes)

@zachleat native web application development always be winner 🏆 by easily updating core dependencies under the hood.

@zachleat @matuzo It’s the same trend with JavaScript. So much done in a framework is handled by the language. Great time to be a web developer.

@zachleat @heydon it'll never catch on

nachtfunke,

@zachleat 10000% agree. Facing battles with this in so many areas. Just recently, with tailwind breaking when using a cascade lager named “base”, without wanting to actually use tailwind the specific file. Nasty.

@zachleat With CSS-in-CSS you mean @import, am I right?!

@zachleat surely we should use CSS.AI. CSS writing CSS as CSS in CSS?

@zachleat always confused me the appeal of frameworks, when you could just become really fluent in CSS, especially with all the dynamic stuff you can do these days

dmc,

@zachleat css-in-css? Can’t see that catching on

bobmonsour,

@zachleat Makes me glad that decided to bail on using Sass.

@bobmonsour I still use Sass on my blog fwiw!

@zachleat CSS in any non-JSX framework is basically also just* writing css as css, so this also applies to them 😁👍

(* you get optional scoping to components)

philsherry,

@zachleat Is this to be C-CSS-SS or CS-CSS-S?

zachleat,
@zachleat@zachleat.com avatar

@philsherry I think CCCSSSSSS is accurate
