What I am most excited about is manipulating these using javascript, which is also something you cannot do with a CSS processor because the values are baked into the CSS.
- Tiquor 11y agoI'm very excited for dynamic, succinct templating.
- err4nt 11y agoIf you're looking for 'living' CSS with variables supplied by JS at the time the styles (or responsive queries) apply, there's a polyfill for IE8+ that includes this functionality that you can use everywhere today! http://codepen.io/tomhodgins/pen/MKWOWW http://codepen.io/tomhodgins/pen/MKWOWW
- onion2k 11y agoI don't understand that use case. If you're happy using a JS value to update a style, what's wrong with just updating the style in JS? If you're concerned about performance then you can obviously do things like debouncing anything that changes the style, or you could use a MediaQueryListListener to fire an event your JS listens to when a user crosses over a media query breakpoint. While it'll be fun to manipulate CSS properties using JS values, it doesn't seem necessary.
- philh 11y agoIt seems like this would let you update lots of styles simultaneously, without having to keep track of exactly which styles they are.
