That’s a very engineer thing to say. Most people are definitely different from you, and that’s why CSS is increasing in scope.

Also, if everyone is implementing the same Jumbotron design again anyway, why not standardise that and support it right away instead? That’s how we got a bunch of features recently, like dialogs, popovers, or page transitions. And it’s for the better, I think.

A strong reason to use llms today is accessing plain text information without needing to interface with someone else stupid css. You really think the general sentiment around css is: yay things are improving?

another strong reason to use llms: no needing to write css anymore.

I don’t care about the general sentiment when I state my personal opinion. There are definitely people who like CSS and the direction it moves to.

And that being said: the ability to express something in a single CSS directive as opposed to a special incantation in JavaScript is an objective improvement, especially with LLMs.
