Dropbox's open-source style guide for authoring CSS and SCSS, covering formatting, spacing, selector conventions, and anti-patterns to avoid. It is a documentation resource rather than executable software.

Use cases

• establish css coding standards for a team
• learn scss best practices
• decide how to format css selectors
• avoid specificity issues in stylesheets
• create a company frontend style guide
• review css code against conventions

When to choose

• you want a battle-tested css/scss convention set from a large engineering org
• you are writing or adopting a frontend style guide
• you use Sass and want nesting and formatting rules

When to avoid

• you need a linter or automated enforcement tool rather than prose guidelines
• you want a css framework or component library
• you need actively updated guidance - the repo has not seen releases since 2019
