Thanks for sharing and broadening my knowledge. :)

Can you also write another article by taking a simple scenario website and add examples of snippets of every rule? It would be helpful. Also, one more question, what are the pros and cons of using semantic structure of css vs utility css like tailwind on the html itself?

Looking forward to more such articles!

Hey! I think SmaCSS's official documentation does a really good job at showing examples of thinking and building in terms of the methodology :) And I should cover the cascade and utility first stuff at a later post. It's mostly depends on what's more important to you (speed of development or a design system etc)

Irina Petrova I built a design system basically using smacss and I'd beg the dev team to read Snook's guide and told them they could do it in 30 minutes. Did they read it? Not usually lol.

It's interesting to me that there's definitely a lot of overlap with you might say predecessor to smacss which was oocss oocss spec and Nicole really does not get the credit deserved for a lot of groundbreaking ideas!

Rob Levin I will be covering oocss (I need to think of how to explain it a differently than the docs 🤣, since Nicole's docs are great!) Might pick your brain about the design system though later, if that's ok!
