You could even use CSS itself. No 2nd DSL to learn and will continue to work for the longest of times. I'm sort of partially kidding. The JIT removal thing in TW is pretty sweet. Certainly it's viable and folks are building great stuff with it. Same for BS too though. Great stuff can be built with it.

My thoughts on modern CSS frameworks? I know most call them frameworks. But shouldn't we be calling them libraries? Well, I've created my own such library and it will help me next time I need to build a design system for a company and they only want to give me 3 months to do it. Writing a custom framework from scratch probably takes about 9 months to a year imo. So I've elected to waste a bunch of my extra time creating AgnosticUI lol. Hopefully it'll pay off.
