  --spacing-unit: 8px;
  --border-radius: 4px;
  --transition-speed: 200ms;
}

/* Modern Layout with Grid/Flexbox */
.container {
  display: grid;
  grid-template-columns: repeat(auto-fit, minmax(300px, 1fr));
  gap: var(--spacing-unit);
}

/* Responsive with Container Queries */
@container (min-width: 400px) {
  .card {
    display: flex;
  }
}

/* Smooth animations */
.element {
  transition: all var(--transition-speed) ease-in-out;
}
```
