Wouldn't a new css pre-processor better than sass been a better take here? #1

Like it's what we need right now to take advantage of modern tooling (speed) and modern features than what currently we get in sass which is by far the most used as .scss???

This is not a CSS preprocessor in any way. It is an attempt at turning CSS into a turing complete UI framework and a programming language within the browser. Everything here is done at runtime and the whole point is that it's essentially consistent with CSS and without a build system involved. Even the function call stack, closures and scoped variables are respresented within dom nodes instead of having some internal representation of a runtime context.

Mostly a gag project tho. This isn't meant to be fleshed out into a real framework as you can probably tell from most of the readme file and also the fact that a codebase written entirely in css would be a nightmare to maintain. It's more of a PoC of something that I wasn't even sure was possible. Apparently, it is.
