stylableStylable - CSS for components
Stylable enables you to write reusable, highly-performant components. Each component exposes a style API that maps its internal parts so you can reuse components across teams without sacrificing stylability.
- Scopes styles to components so they don't "leak" and clash with other styles.
- Enables custom pseudo-classes and pseudo-elements that abstract the internal structure of a component. These can then be styled externally.
- Cuts down on the resulting CSS bundles using "rule-shaking" and other optimizations
At build time, the preprocessor converts the Stylable CSS into a minimal, flat, static, valid vanilla CSS that works cross-browser.
