Myth is a CSS preprocessor built on Rework that lets you write pure, spec-compliant CSS with future syntax (variables, custom media queries, color functions) and compiles it to browser-compatible CSS today. It works both as a CLI and as a JavaScript API, and can re-process existing CSS from other tools.
Use cases
- compile future CSS syntax to browser-compatible CSS today
- use CSS variables and custom media queries before browsers support them
- autoprefix and add vendor fallbacks to plain CSS
- re-process CSS output from Sass or Less without rewriting it
- write pure CSS while getting preprocessor-like features
When to choose
- you want to write spec-compliant CSS that stays future-proof
- you need a lightweight CSS transformer with a simple CLI or JS API
- you want to add browser support to existing CSS without changing syntax
When to avoid
- you need a full-featured preprocessor with mixins, nesting, and imports like Sass
- you need actively maintained tooling - the project has seen little activity and PostCSS is the modern standard
- you need runtime CSS calculations or complex build integrations
