I kinda like parts of Harry's ITCSS organization:

I can see how the atomic layers could be tricky with ECSS, but what are your thoughts on some of the more generic layers?

Hi Cory,

Nothing generic from my POV. The whole point of ECSS is everything is isolated and self contained.

Not even base styles for things like typography?

I see it as a reset.

:root { color: orange; } is legit right?

Yes, some stuff like that is unavoidable but I stay away from any kind of 'utility' styles or grid classes.

Essentially, with ECSS any class based abstractions are considered 'leaky' and therefore avoided :)
