this is the way. Modern CSS brings most of the capabilities to the table that SASS & LESS used to provide, and in part even much more functionality that could never be adequately solved with preprocessors (runtime calc(), light-dark() and layers come to mind)

I'm still a fan of LESS, but quite specifically because it _does not_ try to force another languages syntax into my preprocessed stylesheets, rather keeps everything as css-like as possible. This makes it much easier to transition things to vanilla-only when possible, absolutely dreading "mostly js"-types of SASS frameworks
