Modern CSS is amazing. It empowers us to build incredible experiences on the web, but as CSS becomes more powerful, we are beginning to see a new weak point.

Good examples. Even though I can write HEX colors directly, I usually use dev-tools visually to get it right. Gradients is impossible to write by hand.

    Exactly, I would be suspicious of anyone who can remember the syntax .

    Timing functions is the most extreme example IMO. Being able to visualize a Bezier curve from cubic-bezier(0.47, -0.02, 0.57, 1.04), and THEN mentally map that to an animation behavior is just not humanly possible :)

I've just heard that the EU has just established a task force to find out how we stop CSS before it gets out of hand!
