I guess that some things that "should be simple" are incredibly hard to figure out for beginners in CSS.

I like css, because it is just incredibly powerful, if you know how to use it. There are still some things that could really improve (css needs a "contains" selector that allows you to e.g. select paragraphs that contain an image, without selecting paragraphs that just contain text). Certain things that are common usecases (like centering a container on a page) are not straightforward in all cases etc.

That being said a lot has improved in the last
