CSS { In Real Life } | Disentangling Frameworks

I just quoted Chris saying:

Now Michelle asks:

Turns out it’s a bit of a roach motel, much like most JavaScript frameworks: you can get in but you can’t easily get out.

So whenever possible, the safest, and most future-proof bet is to use the native features of the web platform.
