Stylis is a small css compiler that turns this

stylis('#user', styles);

Where styles is the following css

 
// flat css 
font-size: 2em;
font-family: sans-serif;
 
// polyfill for shadow dom selectors 
:host {
    color: red;
}
 
:host(.fancy) {
    color: red;
}
 
:host-context(body) {
    color: red;
}
 
// removes line comment 
 
.name {
    transform: rotate(30deg);
}
 
// inject to global scope 
@global {
    body {
        background: yellow;
    }
}
 
// inject to global scope inline 
span, h1, :global(h2) {
    color:red;
 
    /**
     * removes block comments
     */
}
 
// prefixing 
& {
    animation: slidein 3s ease infinite;
    display: flex;
    flex: 1;
    user-select: none;
}
 
// namespaced animations 
&:before {
    animation: slidein 3s ease infinite;	
}
 
// namespaced keyframes 
@keyframes slidein {
    from { transform: translate(10px); }
    to { transform: translate(200px); }
}
 
// flat namespaced css in @media 
@media (max-width: 600px) {
    display: block;
 
    &, h1 { 
        appearance: none; 
    }
}
 
// nested 
h1 {
    color: red;
 
    h2 {
        display: block;
 
        h3, &:hover {
            color: blue;
        }
    }
 
    font-size: 12px;
}

into this (minus the whitespace)

    namespaceAnimations, {boolean}

// namespaceAnimations and namespaceKeyframes allow 
// you to prevent keyframes and animations
// from being namespaced

Intergration

You can use stylis to build an abstraction ontop of, for example imagine we want to build an abstract that makes the following React Component possible

class Heading extends React.Component {
    stylesheet(){
        return `
            &{
                color: blue
            }
        `;
    }
    render() {
        return (
            React.createElement('h1', 'Hello World')
        );
    }
}

We could simply extend the Component class as follows

React.Component.prototype.stylis = function (self) {
    var namespace = this.displayName;
 
    return function () {
        stylis(namespace, self.stylesheet(), document.head);
        mounted = true;
        this.setAttribute(namespace);
    }
}

Then use it in the following way

class Heading extends React.Component {
    stylesheet(){
        return `
            &{
                color: blue
            }
        `;
    }
    render() {
        return (
            React.createElement('h1', {ref: this.stylis(self)}, 'Hello World')
        );
    }
}

When the first instance of the component is mounted the function assigned to the ref will get executed adding a style element with the compiled output of stylesheet() where as only the namespace attribute is added to any subsequent instances.

You can of course do this another way

class Heading extends React.Component {
    constructor (props) {
        super(props);
        // or you can even inline this
        this.style = React.createElement('style', {id: this.displayName}, this.stylesheet());
    }
    stylesheet(){
        return `
            &{
                color: blue
            }
        `;
    }
    render() {
        return (
            React.createElement('h1', null, 'Hello World', this.style)
        );
    }
}

One will add it to the head another will render it in place with the component.

If you want a better picture into what can be done, there is an abstraction i created for dio.js that does away with the above boilerplate entirely http://jsbin.com/mozefe/1/edit?js,output
