Maybe don’t use custom properties in shorthand properties
6.3.2025
This easily qualifies as a "gotcha" in CSS and is a good reminder that the cascade doesn't know everything all at the same time. If a custom property is invalid, the cascade won't ignore it, and it gets evaluated, which invalidates the declaration.

Organizing Design System Component Patterns With CSS Cascade Layers
10.2.2025
I enjoy organizing code and find cascade layers a fantastic way to organize code explicitly as the cascade looks at it. The neat part is, that as much as it helps with "top-level" organization, cascade layers can be nested, which allows us to author more precise styles based on the cascade...
