## What it is
Glamorous is a React library for CSS-in-JS component styling, letting you define styles as JavaScript objects on React components, built on top of Glamor. It is officially deprecated and unmaintained, with a recommended migration path to emotion.

## Use cases
- style react components with javascript objects
- css-in-js styling for react apps
- maintainable css with react
- component-based styling with media queries and pseudo classes
- migrate from glamorous to emotion

## When to choose
- maintaining a legacy codebase already using glamorous
- reading or referencing its API in an existing project

## When to avoid
- starting any new react project
- you need maintained css-in-js - use emotion or styled-components instead
- you need bug fixes or security updates

- maturity: abandoned
- function: css-framework, ui-components
