Why I Built Coordiation CSS for Humans and AI Agents
Hello DEV community! 👋 For my first post, I want to share why I started building Coordiation CSS , an independent utility first CSS compiler focused on static output, owned source, and machine readable contracts. Coordiation is currently at version 1.0.0-rc.1. This is a release candidate, not a claim that the project is finished. I am sharing it now because early technical feedback is more…
Coordiation CSS is a utility-first CSS compiler aimed at providing static output, owned source, and machine-readable contracts, making it accessible to both humans and AI agents. The project, currently at version 1.0.0-rc.1, aims to create a system that remains understandable as applications grow, offering predictable utilities, accessible components, and documentation that explains the real behavior of the system.
Coordiation generates registries for utilities, icons, components, themes, compatibility information, and project context, which can support documentation, tests, editor tooling, installers, and AI agents. This allows for a more explicit form of information that AI coding agents can use to inspect exact names, finite choices, version information, warnings, and contracts, improving their performance and reducing the need to infer conventions from a few nearby files.
