Scalable and Modular Architecture for CSS

Jonathan Snook:

I’ve been analyzing my process and the process of those around me and figuring out how best to structure code for projects on a larger scale. What Ive found is a process that works equally well for sites small and large.Learn how to structure your CSS to allow for flexibility and maintainability as your project and your team grows.

Just bought SMACSS, a book by Jonathan Snook about all things CSS. I know how to write CSS, but working on a big project like QUOTE.fm made me realize that writing CSS and writing CSS are not always the same. Crafting a robust, large site is much harder than throwing together a simple WordPress theme. Yesterday was the first time I applied a class to an element and forgot, that I already used it for a total different part of the site.
So while I have already learned a lot building the Front-End of QUOTE.fm, there is still so much to learn. I hope SMACSS will help me refine my CSS skills for large scale sites.
