The best
[CSS Framework](https://github.com/troxler/awesome-css-frameworks#contents)? I
don't know. Complexity moves in mysterious ways. The many interpretations
{{< abbr soc "separation of concerns" >}} model must be satisfied.

  1. {{< abbr CSS "Cascading Style Sheets" >}} in CSS          (canonical)
  2. CSS in {{< abbr HTML "HyperText Markup Language" >}}      (write once and time driven)
  3. CSS in JavaScript                                         (framework driven)
  4. CSS in Shadow {{< abbr "DOM" "Document Object Model" >}}  (company/department driven)
  5. CSS in Scoped Formats                                     ({{< abbr "IDE" "Integrated Development Environment" >}} driven)
  6. CSS in Preprocessors                                      (design system driven)

I'd say, choices reflect environmental factors (social or otherwise) at play. If
you're lucky enough to choose, then suitability favors what draws the finish
line closer? I've no advice since I'd rarely have the time/luxury to choose
anyway. I'm usually thinking about the possibility of more types, sub--types
({{< abbr i.e "that is" >}} in #1: {{< abbr bem "block element modifier" >}},
classless, [etc](https://getbem.com/introduction/)), and the transposition
strategy and speed between each class/type.
