I'm not saying using BEM is a bad thing. Not at all, I'm using it too and like how it plays with Sass/scss. e.g. I do like how Sass makes it easier to write BEM-like code similar to the below: // style.scss .btn { ... &--success { ... . } } // style.css .btn {...} .btn-success {...} But when abusing Sass nesting and choosing a weak naming convention, the resulted CSS selectors can go wild.
