Why I use the BEM naming convention for my CSS

If you've watched any of my recent videos, you'll know that I use the BEM naming convention for my CSS classes. In this video, I explore why I use it, and why I think you should, at the very least, use some sort of naming convention. • BEM stands for Block, Element, Modifier, and it presents us with a way to make more organized and readable CSS. • I like BEM (mostly, I'm not super strict with my use of it) and think it's a great methodology for naming my CSS classes, but there are many others such as OOCSS, SMACSS, Atomic, and many others. BEM isn't the right answer, it's simply one possible answer. I strongly suggest you read up on the others as well and try to adopt one that you think makes the most sense. • BEM: http://getbem.com/introduction/ • OOCSS: http://oocss.org/ • SMACSS: https://smacss.com/ • Atomic CSS: https://github.com/nemophrost/atomic-css • #fiveminutefriday • --- • I have a newsletter! https://www.kevinpowell.co/newsletter • New to Sass, or want to step up your game with it?
