1 points · Open discussionA few questions for those who might be using component-oriented CSS-in-JS libraries like styled-components [0] or glamorous [1]:
1. Do you still use a global, class-based, cascading CSS framework like Bootstrap, Semantic UI, etc, to provide baseline styling/theming for your pages and components? And if not, do you just essentially roll your own custom CSS framework in JS? Or are there styling frameworks out there that don't cascade and can compose more naturally with component-oriented approaches to styling?
2. If you do use cascading CSS frameworks in addition to something like styled-components, what are your approaches to limiting the unpredictable side-effects of cascading styles, dealing with specificity and load order issues, and ensuring proper style isolation inside your components?

k could defeat much of the purpose of using a well-isolated component-oriented styling library.
Although on the other hand, the alternative of writing all styling on my own seems like a futile exercise in reinventing a vastly inferior wheel, since so much designer talent has been poured into projects like Bootstrap to the point where an amateur designer like myself could never even approach the same level of polish, flexibility and consistency in their designs.
I'm hoping someone here could enlighten me on a better approach that takes the best of both worlds, or at least share a middle ground they're happy with?
