      CSS-in-JS is a terrible name for some groundbreaking ideas that dramatically improve the way we style apps. Taken at face value, a lot of devs think it's just moving your same old CSS into JavaScript.

      For example, one very common misconception about "CSS-in-JS" is that it requires a JS runtime in order to run. IT DOES NOT. Just because you *write* your CSS in JS doesn't mean that's how you *run* it. There's a build step in between (like JSX)!

      See e.g. Linaria, which doesn't require a JS runtime at all https://linaria.now.sh

      "CSS-in-JS" refers merely to the technique of taking advantage of some nice properties of JavaScript to write your CSS, but libs vary in their implementation. Some use JS, some don't. That's not the important part.

      Strong +1 I’d argue that the primary advantage CSS-in-JS brings to the table is participation in the JS module system. If `import “component-name.css”` worked, then everything else would comes down to taste (single-file VS. multi-file component, SASS VS. JS).

      cool! I'd be worried about the imperative API which forces certain runtime patterns instead of letting a compiler optimize things (and e.g. hoist them out of JS into pure CSS), but I guess WCs went down this route.

      Constructible Stylesheets are already a huge perf boost, importing them and enabling parallel parsing and not paying the double parse costs will be another boost. I don't see any patterns that the adopting API prevents.

      Also, we didn't *intend* to get stuck in imperative land. Still room to do declarative WC/SD, assuming there's appetite.

          We are flooded with imperative, having declaritive counterpart will make it more junior friendly
