In this episode, we’re joined by GatsbyJS software engineer Dustin Schau to introduce our listeners to the concept of CSS-in-JS. Using this technique with React applications, you’re able to compartmentalize your styles to your individual components, ensuring you never have specificity or leakage issues with your design.

Dustin has also produced a course on CSS-in-JS at Manning Publications that is a great starting point if you’re interested in learning more about how you can incorporate styled-components into your next React project.
