I've just discovered that styled-components is going into maintenance mode, and I've relied on it for many of my projects. I tried Tailwind, but I find the long class lists in HTML a bit cumbersome. I've heard some buzz about Linaria—has anyone here tried it? What are your thoughts? I came across an article discussing this, but I'd love to get more opinions.

You might want to consider CSS modules! They integrate well with most setups and can give you that component-scoped CSS feeling without the extended class names.
I mean, it all comes down to what features you need. Plain CSS works perfectly fine, but specialized libraries might help with specific needs down the line.
True, mastering CSS can be challenging, but it pays off in the long run!
If you're looking for something similar in syntax to styled-components, I'd recommend checking out Emotion. It's got a lot of the same features!
Honestly, I think plain old CSS is still the best. Pair it with class utilities like clsx, and you can keep things neat!
But switching the entire codebase to CSS modules sounds daunting! Any other suggestions?
