## What it is
CSScomb is a coding style formatter for CSS, available as a CLI tool and Node.js library. Its main feature is sorting CSS properties in a configurable order, with customizable configuration via JSON files or predefined configs.

## Use cases
- format css files to a consistent coding style
- sort css properties in a specific order
- enforce a team css style guide
- automatically reformat stylesheets in a project
- run css style formatting from the command line

## When to choose
- you need configurable CSS property sorting and style formatting
- you want a CLI or Node.js API for formatting CSS files
- you prefer a dedicated CSS formatter over a general linter

## When to avoid
- you need a formatter for SCSS/LESS or modern CSS syntax beyond what Gonzales PE supports
- you want an actively developed tool with recent updates
- you need linting with error reporting rather than pure formatting

## Facets
- artifact type: cli-tool
- maturity: maintenance
- function: formatter, cli
- domain: frontend, web-development, developer-tools
- platform: cli, cross-platform
- tags: css, code-style, linting, property-sorting, nodejs
