I really like less.js for quick development. Once everything is working, the less code can be compiled and included as regular css.
My toolchain is currently...
python/apache pure json apis server side
knockoutjs/jquery/less client side
This is very powerful, but the semantics of programming are pretty crazy. I have variables and "functions" in my css, data bindings in the HTML, and a massive ammount of js. The js is sometimes hard to structure.
I almost wish there was a single lightweight coffescript style language to replace the big three (HTML/CSS/JS). The "HTML is for documents" idea is already long gone in most of my code.
