How I'm Writing CSS in 2024

https://leerob.io/blog/css - could writing CSS be fun (again)?

i'll have to read the whole thing, but:

in the end it's mostly a question of whether it needs a build step. i don't like build steps if avoidable and imo, for most small web projects, a build step for CSS is absolutely avoidable. why? because build tools break after some time. i don't want to spend hours to fix the tool chain and dependencies when i touch a project for the first time in a year.
