Preface

CSS is often perceived as a simple language. In fact, while being declarative and apparently simple, it is pretty hard to maintain. For a growing large-scale web application, maintainability is crucial. This book is about ways to leverage known tricks and hacks, new CSS level 3 module techniques, preprocessors, and other tools to create really high-quality products. This will include examples on techniques such as float handling and component-based CSS.
