Discussion on: Bum(S)CSS – Conventions for writing lazy and pragmatic CSS

Reading a little bit more about ITCSS I figured that they are using almost the same naming conventions as BEM. Imho this makes the html very convoluted and reading and writing it harder than it should be. On the other hand I like the little pyramid. Combine both approaches with each other should be no problem.

Personally, I think BEM is great and not hard to write or read at all - but that's indeed the thing, you don't have to use it in pure form with ITCSS if you don't want to; you can combine inverted triangle approach with pretty much any naming convention you want.

Glad I could help :)
