Is it alive?

[artalar]

Hi there, styled-jsx is an interesting lib with good API, it recommended by official docs of next.js and already integrated with it (also hosted in the Vercel GH org).
But it looks a little neglected. I was created #650 and #651 a long time ago but still have no reactions. This repo has other issues without any reactions. Why it happened, is it a lack of maintainers?

@rauchg, @nkzawa, @leo, @giuseppeg pay attention please

@artalar sadly, this project is not adequately maintained to be relied upon anymore. I've put many hours into into high effort suggestions and PR's that fix critical bugs, only for them to languish for months without a merge or sometimes even review:

• Support Node.js ESM #641
• fix: make styled-jsx/babel plugin respect the source type #684

These important suggestions haven't been actioned in a year:

• Babel plugin should add React import if necessary #575
• optimizeForSpeed mode sometimes attempts to insert multiple rules as one #602 (comment)

I really gave styled-jsx my best shot and have pushed it to its limits over the years, but due to bugs blocking things I need to do at this point it makes the most sense to refactor projects away from styled-jsx to Emotion and update my UI library to use Emotion (as well as supporting Styled Components via an abstraction). Emotion will probably have bugs too from time to time, but at least they have good velocity and actively maintain the project.

I find out that styled-jsx is the best css-in-js solution for styling react components.
I would love to maintain the project if there are really no one having enough time to maintain the library, because I don't want to say goodbye to styled-jsx.

I never liked styled-component solution for example or others libraries like emotion etc. I always use styled-jsx since it's builtin in Next.js, it has a really good api and everything but styled-jsx has real issues that should be fix now, maybe @giuseppeg could add motivated collaborators to the project.

Also to improve the project further, we could deprecate @types/styled-jsx, and instead provide types directly in this package or even better, we could rewrite the package in TypeScript, we could benefit a lot from this. I could open a PR and work on this if wanted.

I hope we will see some movement in the near future, I don't want the death of styled-jsx, but the current silens of mainteners looks not good.

P.S. @divlo currently u haven't the rights to accept PRs?

Hi everyone! This package is still alive and we fix issues as they come up if they relate to Next.js.

Please open any bugs you may be experiencing on the Next.js issue tracker specifically, which will give them more visibility.

RFCs should also exist as a Next.js discussion as that'd draw the most attention to get the upvotes necessary to implement the feature.

I'll close this issue, but please CC me on any issues that need attention!
