Thoughts on BEM for inuit.css

Bringing BEM to inuit.css

BEM is a methodology for naming and classifying CSS selectors in a way to make them a lot more strict, transparent and informative.

The naming convention follows this pattern:

.block{}
.block__element{}
.block--modifier{}

Checkout github pull requests locally

Locate the section for your github remote in the .git/config file. It looks like this:

[remote "origin"]
	fetch = +refs/heads/*:refs/remotes/origin/*
	url = git@github.com:joyent/node.git

Now add the line fetch = +refs/pull/*/head:refs/remotes/origin/pr/* to this section. Obviously, change the github url to match your project's URL. It ends up looking like this:

head = doc.documentElement.firstChild,
styleTag = doc.createElement('STYLE');
head.appendChild(styleTag);
doc.__qsaels = [];
styleTag.styleSheet.cssText = selector + "{x:expression(document.__qsaels.push(this))}";
window.scrollBy(0, 0);
