CSS Objects are selectors.
CSS Buckets are rules.
Prioritize defining objects over defining rules.

The purpose is to make each object independent.
Use CSS variables for shared styles when possible.
Someday soon, there will be a CSS function that would apply a rule to a selector.

As an exercise on Front-End Development, The UI Team took a screenshot from instagram.com and treated it as if it were a design mockup.
We then proceed to deconstruct its Structure and Skeleton (Elements of UX) thru Information Architecture, Interaction Design, Information Design. The knowledge that arose in this deconstruction was used in building the HTML and CSS.
See the Pen Deconstructing Instagram by Brian Dys Sahagun (@BrianSahagun) on CodePen.
We, as Visual Designers, have experienced how time-consuming it was to build the Front-End of a design mockup basing only on a simple image.
The Design Handoff warrants to have more than the Brand Guidelines, Style Guide. It must also have some form of Information Architecture and Interaction Diagram that could greatly make Front-End Development faster.
HTML could accommodate Intentions Oriented Programming (IOP).
IOP is based on intentions rather than constructs.
Code could be validated but a deeper level and meaning depends on the intentions of the programmer.
In designing the user interface (UI) of an app, it is common to start with the design of the populated state of the UI. As designers, we envision perfect scenarios, common flows, and predictable results. This, understandably, contains the bulk of work a designer has to face. It contains all sorts of issues that need to be addressed.
In turn, we might neglect designing for the different states of the component or the whole system that we are designing.
In general, here are the different states a component might be in:
