What is the main benefit of using this skill?

It streamlines the creation of minimal, fast, and accessible UIs by leveraging server-side patterns and reducing client-side JavaScript overhead through htmx.

Is this skill compatible with any web project?

While optimized for Hiccup and htmx environments, its principles of semantic structure and BEM-based styling are applicable to any project prioritizing lean frontend code.

Can I use this for complex animations?

Yes, it includes support for transition animations while prioritizing accessibility standards, such as respecting user reduced-motion preferences.

Does it support modern CSS frameworks?

The skill specifically follows BEM (Block Element Modifier) conventions to ensure scalable and modular CSS architectures that are easy to maintain.
