CSS Calisthenics

Introduction

A series of exercises designed to help you improve your CSS. This are not rules that should be applied to all style sheets and this is not a measure of CSS quality, merely tools to help you learn some of CSS's strengths.

Pre-processors and styled components

These exercises assume that you have 1 style sheet. We're talking about the CSS that is generated after the pre-processors have run. For styled components, extract all styles (even if the component isn't being used on the current view) and put them into a single style sheet. If you have an inline <style> tag for performance, those styles should be in the single style sheet.
