What would you recommend instead of CSS?
- bamboozled 5y agoTailwind
- eurasiantiger 5y ago… which is a CSS utility class library and thus suffers from some of the same pitfalls. How about something like Ant Design?
- svachalek 5y agoUnless something major has happened to it since I used it, Ant uses a giant ball of SCSS with complex selectors that make it ridiculously hard to customize without hacking the source.
- eurasiantiger 5y agoHacking is exactly what we are trying to avoid. Just change the variables to suit your branding and compile the SCSS yourself, just like Bootstrap (which was using LESS but otherwise the same idea).
- bamboozled 5y agoNever been an issue for me. I hear this a lot though, it's probably not for everyone.
- madeofpalk 5y ago> complex selectors that make it ridiculously hard to customize without hacking the source. This, to me, is a feature. Don’t customise it.

- madeofpalk 5y agoIt must be CSS in the end, but you should create/use a component library, that has the right set of primitives (and less-primitives) that lets end feature developers create the UIs without having to resort to manually write CSS. THis is made significantly easier when you have designers working with this "design library" mindset also.
