CSS is really great, and I've felt this way since it was introduced - but the lack of tooling around it today is anachronistic



CSS is incredible technology, but holy shit does it feel archaic in a large Typescript project to have a massive design system in a string.

Why can’t I click an element and see the css files that apply to it? Why can I get autocomplete for my utility classes and custom properties? I would happily nuke CSS from a project for a typescript library that could marry the two worlds with minimal trade-offs, but I’ve yet to have the time or courage to dive into a library like vanilla-extract: https://vanilla-extract.style
