Thanks for the vanilla-extract recommendation, I'll be using this! In my case, tailwind was useful for providing a handy set of vocabularies for simple and common stylings. But once customizations start to pile on, we're back into SCSS. Using 2 systems at once meant additionally gluing them with the postcss toolchain, so effectively we have 3 preprocessors running for every style refresh. Looking in at TypeScript from the clojurescript ecosystem though, I'm still yet to see an equal to https://github.com/noprompt/garden or https://github.com/Jarzka/stylefy: single language, excellent composability, compile-time anonymous class names, inline styles... almost like they solved CSS (except for typing) that said, tailwind's and SCSS's VS code integration is pretty amazing.

Clojure(script) with re-frame, using the luminus template. https://github.com/Day8/re-frame http://www.luminusweb.net/ edit: Should probably say why... - Clojure and clojurescript give nearly identical experiences on the front and back end, with the ability to actually share some code between the two. - Clojure is dynamic and spec gives some really awesome validation and generative test capabilities - There is a lot of fuss around javascript frameworks and dealing with html / css build tools and their arbitrary syntax. Clojure front end frameworks provide tools that make templating html look just like regular data structures in clojure, styles too. With stylefy you can also keep all styles inline while supporting media queries. It really is a low cognitive load setup once you get going. I love it. https://github.com/Jarzka/stylefy edit-2:

More whys... - re-frame is basically redux but easier and with less boilerplate. I use it for small and large projects. - Pure immutable functions are such a game changer. Even poorly written projects with tons of features can be reasoned about and broken down for long term maintenance if the language supports immutability and pure functions. Re-frame really plays to this strength for managing state and I can't say enough good things about it. Been working with it for 2+ years and I can't imagine switching for anything else I've seen out there.
