that may be so, but I think it's a valid point to bring up the tradeoffs you're making, including using a non-standard dsl that other designers/developers/hires will likely be unfamiliar with.

personally having written css since I was a teenager, my gut reaction is "eww", but if the team or stakeholders deem it to add value to a project and not affect productivity, sure why not?



The grandparent comment wasn't "bringing up tradeoffs". They literally just said real devs don't use frameworks.


I think it’s not for people who know CSS. It’s specifically for SPAs where site-wide changes are related to component changes and so having to change the html is not that different from changing the css.

I can not force myself to use something like this but I’ve been writing CSS for a long time.

I use BEM and predefined sets of colors and space values to ensure consistency and that’s efficient enough for me.
