I'm honestly not necessarily a BEM fan as class names become literally huge if you don't rely a bit on nested elements (targeting nested classes is not very BEMmy - but SASS makes it so convenient). But haven't found a naming convention or "framework" that does the job better. BEM also doesn't address how you should organize the style library for maintainability. I just use my own simplified structure based on ITCSS now.
I just wish that someone could make a methodology or an architecture of building style libraries that felt obvious and was more plug-and-play, I hate that I feel like have to revisit the style library organization and naming convention for each new project to reevaluate if it makes sense for the scope of the project.
Then again, I work as a fullstack dev in a small team of more backend-focused fullstack devs, so I don't do frontend as often as I'd like and don't really have anyone to discuss these issues with.
Have you worked with Bootstrap at all?
Very little (and long ago). We usually use a frontend stack of Angular and PrimeNG for our projects.
