Raw CSS

Raw CSS is the least opinionated legacy web workflow target.

Use it when the destination site does not use Pixflow Framework, ACSS, Advanced Themer, Core Framework, or another token system.

What Raw CSS does

Raw CSS output uses static values instead of framework variables.

That means:

• no Pixflow variables
• no mapped framework variables
• no framework setup requirement
• fewer global design-system benefits later

When it is useful

Raw CSS can be useful for:

• quick tests
• small one-off pages
• sites without a framework
• users who want the copied output to be as self-contained as possible

Tradeoff

Raw CSS is flexible at first, but it is harder to maintain on larger projects.

If you expect the site to grow, a plugin setup, Pixflow Framework setup, or mapped framework target will usually be easier to manage.
