Atomic CSS is great. It does abuse class="" in the same way style="" was abused. It's counter-intuitive but the obvious code smells produced here are better than the non-obvious co…

Yep, it's weird and controversial. That's why I wrote a book explaining it and used a pseudonym. Now: ~60% of devs know some CSS, rest feel guilty YSAC's pitch: ~10% of devs know l…

The perfection should be downstream of the project's coded standards, not downstream of the faithful implementation of the designer's work. Some designers are really good about mai…

Edited the year into the title. CASS (the CSS library) and YSAC (this book) have been a huge marketing mess, to be honest. And yeah the substack was part of it-- I think the book c…
