What's wrong with class="centered wide-margins light-bg"? It would do the same as what your .resources class looks like it might do, and it's supported everywhere already.

I feel like you're still thinking small in terms of attributes, and big in terms of values. Many many values all crammed into one attribute (class), but the reality is you can invent infinite (∞) data attributes. There's literally

How come people who do this only ever use class names? Why not invent your own data attribute like data-hover="red" where you create new namespaces for things like hover, or pseudo classes, why it it always only ever class names?

These jacks come from, not the 20th century, but the 19th century! It boggles my mind how something we've have had since the 1880s is suddenly obsolete. There's a plethora of devices in existence manufactured over a span of decade

Why/where would modules be necessary here? Just because there's a feature now that didn't exist years ago doesn't mean it's the right time & place to use it. The code works as-is, a small refactor to leverage bu

I'm not saying a rewrite is necessary at all, but refactoring this code to use more modern standards would NOT increase the line count at all, my guess it it might cut it by 15%+ in total size if you leveraged the beautiful builtin fun
