I like that css now has variables, but why that syntax?
I think to make sure they don’t clash with existing identifiers
I could understand declaring with
--foo, but then referencing should be eithervar(foo)or just--foo, not the combinationvar(--foo). I don't get why the grammar has to work that way.When you’re writing a style that you only want to apply when it’s a descendant of a specific selector, it’s waaaaaaaaay easier to write and maintain than writing that selector over and over for every ruleset
