The Margin (* + *) and Font Size (font-size: calc(1em + 1vw)) declarations are really cool, it's the first time I read about them.
What do more experienced designers think of them? Handling spacing between elements is usually a pain (should I add margin on the top, or the bottom?), and font sizes proportional to the display width is IMO genius, so why aren't these declarations used more often?
EDIT: the article title is a little unfortunate, I thought it was about the modern Javascript ecosystem and that every tool has to have some kind of plugin system, modularity, extensibility, and require a ton of boilerplate to fit your 3-file website. Or that's what I expected, anyway.
