The Complete Guide for Setting Up React App from Scratch (feat. TypeScript)
w/ postcss-preset-env(v7.8.3): convert modern CSS into something most browsers can understand, determining the polyfills you need based on your targeted browsers or runtime environments. It takes the support data that comes from MDN and Can I Use and determine from a browserlist whether those transformations are needed. It also packs Autoprefixer within and shares the list with it, so prefixes are only applied when you're going to need them given your browser support list.

In terms of styling, how does the structure of your project using traditional CSS look like?
There's a @ custom-media proposal (and PostCSS plugin) that can make it a lot easier to use media queries across components. Define your MQs in your global CSS, use everywhere. If you're worried about repeating MQs in your CSS from a bloat perspective, there are PostCSS plugins for that as well.

Is a bracket within a bracket possible? (HTML/CSSS)

Future of CSS: Functions and Mixins
Traditionally CSS lacked features such as variables, nesting, mixins, and functions. This was frustrating for Developers as it often led to CSS quickly becoming complex and cumbersome. In an attempt to make code easier and less repetitive CSS pre-processors were born. You would write CSS in the format the pre-processor understood and, at build time, you'd have some nice CSS. The most common pre-processors these days are Sass, Less, and Stylus. Any examples I give going forward will be about Sass as that's what I'm most familiar with.

Vanilla+PostCSS as an Alternative to SCSS
While we may disagree whether Sass is still relevant today, Mayank's case for using Sass in 2022 sums up the many use cases for Sass/SCSS including a timeline from 2006 (Sass) to "2022+" (nesting).
