Are you currently using LESS? If so, what are your thoughts
about its usefulness?

As a heavy Bootstrap user, I use LESS constantly. Once you really dig
in, you find out quickly just how useful it truly is. Tech like LESS and
SASS are perfect for those creating skinned applications.

I'm just now looking seriously into LESS and its usage.
So far, I've really only looked at its use of variables.
As far as variables are concerned, I don't see much difference
between using variables and classes.
I can define, say, a class this way in CSS:
.titleColor { color: blue }
and use

Variables are on small advantage. It's nice to be able to set a variable
for a color, for instance, and reuse it in several hundred locations, in
a variety of scenarios, without having to apply a separate class to
thousands of lines of code throughout an application. If the color
changes, the
Apparently, this looks like a CSS prepocessor.
But I do not see anything that cannot be done with CF.
So what is the advantage of using yet another technology?

You're right, you could do something like this with CF. But why rewrite
the wheel when documented frameworks already exist that can do it for
you? Now, if you need something that one of these frameworks can not
accomplish for you...

Also, I don't believe the installer for CF 10 installs them if you choose
the option during install. I reported this issue after the release, so it
might be fixed or perhaps not.

I read the article you referenced and it did clarify some things,
but, being an overview of many different approaches and frameworks
to utilizing CSS, it opened up a large can of worms!
I'm going to check out the BEM approach, first, just as a starting point.

How would you perform CSS pre-processing with CF?
Well, if the job is just to create dynamic CSS, CF can do the same way it can
create dynamic HTML.
It can either create static .CSS files whenever styles muste be changed. For
instance, in my CMS I have a styles editor with all parameters
LESS (and SASS/SCSS) are common, widely used CSS preprocessors. Frameworks like
Bootstrap come with LESS files.
I could also write my own database use XML files and CF's XML/struct/array
capabilities, but that would be quite ridiculous.
