<head>
<link rel="stylesheet" href="goodLuck.css">
<style "critical CSS" arrives at the browser first but gets trampled on first
<link rel="stylesheet" href="better.css">
loadCSS injects best.css at the bottom of the <head> BY DEFAULT but
loads just before the script element containing this code
<script id="loadcss">loadCSS("best.css", document.getElementById("loadcss"));</script>
</head><body>
<style> @import "invalid.css"; </style>
<link rel="stylesheet" href="invalidWinner.css">
</body>
scss:
%variation { background: orange;}
.module { background: #ccc;}
.module-variation { @extend %variation; } //this moves up to % so orange wins
