Top
Pro
Easy to install and use
It's written in node, so you can install it with npm. All available plugins are installed by default and include some development tools like a watcher and a browser live-reload so it don't need more than few seconds to be ready to start to work.

Top
Con
May be merged with PostCSS in the future
Since Stylecow is pretty small and hasn't gained a lot of traction in the past 5 or so years since it was first released but also because it serves kind of the same purpose as PostCSS which is much more popular, there have been discussions on merging the two projects together.
See More
Top
Pro
Advanced API and parser
The parser detects any CSS syntax error found. The output code can be customized to follow your own code style rules (indentation, spaces, string quotes, etc). It has a clean and powerfull API, which make easy to create new plugins.

Top
Con
Small community
Stylecow doesn't have a very large community. This can make it difficult to find answers and increases the risk of the project being abandoned.

Pro
No need to learn a new syntax
Since Stylecow allows developers to write simple, vanilla CSS, there's no need to learn a whole new language.

Lack of support in IDEs
Currently there is very little support for syntax highlighting when writing PostCSS plugins.

JavaScript-based
Because the parser/compiler can function in a web browser, it can be used with systems that cannot run similar technology on the server. For example, you could build a WordPress plugin with a front-end application that transforms CSS.

No need to learn a new syntax

Con
Harder to install and keep working
The immense flexibility of PostCSS plus its current rapid evolution makes it harder to install, configure and keep running than the more monolithic and mature preprocessors.
See More
Top
Pro
Flexible
PostCSS allows you to opt-in to the features you need with plugins. This allows you to set it up to behave exactly like Sass, with nesting, mixing, extends, and more. On the other hand, it allows you to use plugins by themselves for things like auto-prefixing, minification, and more. You can even set up your own custom "stack" of plugins to do exactly what you like.

Style webpages with a full programming language
With Garden, you have access to all the core features of a powerful programming language to build your scripts, including functions, variables, namespaces, and data manipulation like map merging or concatenation.
See More
Top
Con
Harder to apply shared styles
Because you are working in Clojure, you can't just paste in raw css style snippets shared elsewhere.
See More
Top
Pro
Full-stack Clojure with ClojureScript for front-end + Clojure for backend
Garden finishes the full Clojure stack experience — you can have the entire codebase in a single language with ClojureScript on the front-end, Clojure on the backend, and Garden for CSS.

Styles as data-nesting are obvious
Clojure is a data-oriented programming language with strong emphasis on simple, clear inline data structures. Garden models styles using these same structures, making the cascade visually obvious.
See More
Top
Pro
Clean syntax
Other options listed include various pain-points like use of @ symbols or too much cruft; because Garden is just Clojure, and Clojure is a very well-designed language aimed to emphasize simplicity and positive developer experience (without semantic whitespace problems), you have the full benefit of a well-designed and general-purpose syntax.

Powerful advanced function features
You are able to declare custom functions with Sass (for example, converting units) which can be easily invoked, even when using shorthand properties. This results in cleaner, more reusable code.

Requires Ruby or libSass
To compile Sass, it needs either Ruby or libSass installed locally.

Pro
Nested selectors
Sass allows you to nest selectors which results in code that is both faster to write and cleaner to read. For example, this: .parent color: blue .child color: yellow Will compile to this: .parent { color: blue; } .parent .child { color: yellow; }

Con
Noisy syntax
There is many unnecessary characters when using the SCSS syntax. {}:;@ However using the Sass syntax eliminates them.

Rapid development
Another big advantage for Sass is the very active community pushing the development forward at a rapid pace. Sass is constantly coming out with bug fixes, and are often the first to come out with improvements. This is an important factor to keep in mind when picking a preprocessor to invest your time into.
See More

Pro
Extends CSS maintaining compatibility with CSS standards specification
It comes with two possible syntaxes: Sass - No parens or semicolons allowed and the nesting is dictated with whitespace. SCSS - SCSS syntax is a superset of CSS – which means SCSS can be written as CSS, but has been expanded to include the features of Sass as well. SCSS is easier to pick up for beginners and Sass has a cleaner syntax. Having both syntaxes means you can pick the one that best suits your coding style. The mandatory syntax rules for both SCSS and Sass results in a more consistent code. For a more detailed analysis between Sass and SCSS go here.

Easy to learn
Because Less has a lightweight feature set, is syntactically similar to CSS and can be run client side with file conversion on a page reload, it is easy to pick up by anyone familiar with CSS & the very basics of JS. Also, Less has detailed and well-organized documentation, GUI apps that can watch and compile code for you and a huge, active and helpful community.

Less uses '@' to declare variables
The '@' symbol is used with Less to declare variables. However '@' already has meaning in CSS, as it is used to declare @media queries and @keyframes. This can result in some confusion when reading the code.

Familiar CSS style syntax
The LESS syntax is essentially the same as CSS with extensions for dynamic behavior such as variables, mixins, operations and functions. Variables: @color: #4D926F; #header { color: @color; } h2 { color: @color; } Mixins: .rounded-corners (@radius: 5px) { -webkit-border-radius: @radius; -moz-border-radius: @radius; -ms-border-radius: @radius; -o-border-radius: @radius; border-radius: @radius; } #header { .rounded-corners; } #footer { .rounded-corners(10px); } Nested Rules: #header { h1 { font-size: 26px; font-weight: bold; } p { font-size: 12px; a { text-decoration: none; &:hover { border-width: 1px } } } }

Difficult for beginners
Rework has a more involved setup that can make it an intimidating first option for beginners to css processing. As Rework is built around plugins, the documentation can't be found in one spot. The quality of documentation also varies between plugins.

Unrestricted potential
Because Rework plugins are done in code, there are no limits to what they can do, and they tend to provide more advanced functionality that would be harder to implement in other preprocessors, such as file I/O and custom logic.
See More
Top
Pro
Built around plugins
Rework isn't a language for compiling to CSS but rather a library around parsing it and transforming it. For example, a vendor prefix plugin will inject prefixes around needed properties so you don't have to muddy up your CSS dealing with it. Because Rework is built around plugins at its core, it makes for easier plugin writing if you find you want to add in new functionality.

Can work with other preprocessors
Although you don't have to, since Rework works on vanilla CSS, you could use another preprocessor that has a syntax you enjoy more before applying Rework's transforms.

Allows for customized properties
Rework plugins can recognize custom properties and transform them via plugins. This allows you to keep your CSS clean and expand its functionality in a native feeling way, without having to learn a bunch of new language constructs.

Too many bookmarking and tagging companies have stopped or have gone bankrupt these last years (e.g. Kippt, Spingpad, Delicious (to some extent), etc...). So, if you are going to invest a lot of your personal time and energy in curating your Internet findings (i.e. your bookmarks and tags), it is essential that a total, fair and open export (including all tags) functionality is provided. Personally tested the export "feature" and the resulting .html file that Pocket generates currently included only the URLs themselves, i.e. no save dates nor any of your personally curated tags, nor any other useful meta-data. This is deplorable, because otherwise, Pocket is a very polished and well-functioning piece of multi-platform and multi-device software/app/web service, with a very easy and well-designed and implemented user interface... Please fix this, Pocket ! These days of open and inter-operable web services, users are only attracted by valuable functionality, clean UX design and no lockins.

Search function in Pro version does not follow the proper date sequence
Although the pro version lets us search by tags, the search results unfortunately does not follow the time sequence of the saving of articles. Search results may show some old articles first, then a bunch of new articles, and then again old articles. It's so random and frustating. I have been using Pocket pro for quite a long time primarily because it lets me have the permanent copy of a news (this feature is really useful in journalism). However, when I search tag wise for the old references, the absence of time-sequencing the search results really frustates me.

Not really a bookmark tool but a tool to save webpages for later reading
A real bookmark tool has editable fields like title, url, folder, tags, notes. This saves webpages.

Included in Firefox
Pocket is now integrated into the Firefox web browser, and you can login using your firefox/mozilla login, instead of having to create a separate account. This login method can even be used natively on their website, regardless what browser is being used.

Deleted or edited tags do not go away from tag suggestions
For example, imagine you accidentally created a tag "US" instead of "USA," and saved some articles under "US." The unfortunate part is even if you edit the tag and rename it "USA" , the previous tag name will always appear in the suggested tags: so when saving an article, if you type US in the tag box, you will see two suggestions "US" and "USA."

Overall very useful
It takes all of your tabs (choose between all/all-except-current/current/all-to-right/all-to-left) and turns them into links in a special OneTab tab where you can further manage your tabs by dividing them into groups, removing duplicates and securing them so that they can't be removed unless unsecured.

Con
Can get messy
The OneTab tab has everything in a list format with just simple headings describing what you have in this or that list. It isn't comfortable to manage it when you have quite a lot of tabs in there.

You can organize links by dragging and dropping them
You can drag and drop links/tabs to reorder them by relevance, or to move them from one list to another.

Slightly confusing UX
It's easy to forget that clicking on the OneTab button in the extensions bar doesn't show you options – it saves your current session by closing all your tabs in the given browser window. That might be slightly annoying if you were trying to access the OneTab dashboard or view OneTab options instead of trying to save your current session in OneTab, but this is only a minor inconvenience given how easy it is to restore your session.

Non-invasive
The OneTab dashboard only appears the first time you open your browser after quitting, although you can also make it appear through the extension button in the extensions bar. This is less invasive behavior than the Chrome extensions that appear every time you open a new browser tab.

Con
Clicking on a tab/link to re-open it automatically deletes it from a session
This is not so much a con as much as it is a heads up for those who use OneTab as a form of transient digital bookmarking (like me!). When you click on a tab/link in any given OneTab session, that will cause it to disappear from the list of tabs in that section. It would be nice if there was an interim period or separate place where the link is still visible/accessible. That or it would be nice to have a version history of past closed tabs/links and sessions.

Provides just enough information
OneTab provides just the right amount of meta-info about the tabs you've saved. It groups them by session, and tells you how many tabs are in each session, as well as the date the session was created. Every saved tab includes the bookmarked favicon and page title.
