Small typo in the following paragraph on the front page: "There are plenty of amazing front end framworks -> frameworks already, such as, Bootstrap and Foundation. If you're looking for something feature rich with loads of components, those are both great choices."
Just throwing this in here in case anyone is on the look for other frameworks: http://semantic-ui.com/ So far this is my favourite!
I prefer CSS frameworks to provide the bare minimum instead of the kitchen sink. The only exception I make is if I am working on a project that I know will not have design provided. If a project does have a provided design, overriding framework defaults is counterproductive. Just write your own styles when you need them.
BEM may be effective for some, but it's a total turn-off for me simply because of the `__` syntax making my eyes bleed.

I guess I'm still thinking in documents with semantic mark-up, rather than UI widgets. I'm not entirely convinced throwing out all the cascading bits is the best approach, but I sympathize with that point of view.]
This is madness. Why work so hard to avoid how CSS selectors work? I mean, if you have a menu-structure built around divs, surely it should be enough to say that direct children of the div with class menu, should be considered menu items?
div.menu > div {
background: red;
}
div.menu > div:nth-child(3) {
background: blue;
}
Item one

In my opinion this is still the best option for CSS, especially in combination with React. http://tachyons.io/ Most importantly it contains a ratio-based scale: http://tachyons.io/docs/layout/spacing/
It's a grid system, not framework, so it adapts to what you need.

Had to look up BEM, this appears to be a good overview: https://css-tricks.com/bem-101/ [ed: Having now read: http://mrmrs.io/writing/2016/03/24/scalable-css/ linked above, I can at least see where this idea is coming from.

Geez. Those selectors.. " "
Being able to design UIs without opening a single CSS file has made HTML pretty fun and I've found I'm much better at componentizing the right things.
