Some frontend developers know the BEM methodology as a naming convention for CSS and they create a disgusting #webcomponents. I've explain the essence of BEM and shown the benefits for your frontend projects.

Feel free to share it with a people who tells you "i use CSS-modules, so i no needs a BEM"

I like BEM in theory, but whenever I actually dive in and start setting up the naming scheme what I end up with are some really long and convoluted identifiers that don’t always make things easier to organize.

As i shown in blog post, the BEM power is a code decoupling and features composing ability in a typescript/javascript code. CSS naming strategy is just a small part of BEM. BEM also works great for native mobile applications where CSS does not exist at all

Yes I get that, just not a fan of what it ends up looking like. Feels like more effort than necessary for what’s really just a naming scheme.
