TL;DR

In this article, I discuss what I call the "two-tree problem" with styling modern web apps. The problem arises from the separation of structure and style.

I suggest that while CSS is a well-designed language for styling, the cascade and separation of styles from HTML may have been mistakes.

I then examine some popular styling libraries, including Emotion, Styled Components, Tailwind, and UI Box, assessing their effectiveness in addressing the two-tree problem.

I make a case for inline styles as a potential solution, emphasizing their simplicity. I acknowledge the limits of inline styles but suggest that these limits might not be significant issues for modern web development.
