Why

Scoped CSS is neat and keeps your JS clean. PostCSS is amazing for extended features, such as nesting. CSS Modules keep your class names “local”.

Known bugs

There's a bug, possibly within next.js, making composition between files unuseable. Consider the following:

styles.css

.paragraph {
  composes: font-sans from '../global.css';
}

global.css

.font-sans {
  font-family: georgia; /* ;) */
}

The following error is thrown:

Module build failed: Error: Cannot find module '-!./../node_modules/css-loader/index.js??ref--6-4!./../node_modules/postcss-loader/index.js!../global.css'
