I'm partial to rscss (http://rscss.io) although that's another "technique" that doesn't seem to be used a lot in the wild. Just makes sense to me.

Thanks you for sharing CSS structure guide, It is very interesting, but I found a drawback based on my experience when the role of "person responsible the look & feel" is shared between team-mates. Some developers (who raised up when jQuery was must-be library in any project) have practice to supply implicit class selector i.e. when they search elements with class name '.link' via document.querySelector. I like the rscss(-like) way, because BEM which is very difficult to follow for newbies (especially now, when react is so popular). But, hey is it a next competitive standard as in famous xkcd [1]?

Thanks. rscss seems really interesting. I've mostly used BEM but I like the syntax in rscss more.

One thing I'm not sure about though is the child selector. I often have intermediate layers between the root of my component and the elements. Wrappers and stuff to make certain positioning possible. This won't be possible with child selectors only.
