CSS Cascade Layers (@layer) Generator

@layer lets you group CSS into named buckets — reset, base, components, utilities — with priority controlled entirely by declaration order, independent of selector specificity. This tool lets you build, reorder, and visualize that priority order before you write a line of CSS. Pick a preset or build your own stack, reorder layers with the arrows, and copy the generated @layer statement plus scaffold blocks.

Top = highest priority (wins). Unlayered styles (plain CSS with no @layer) beat every layer above, no matter where they appear in the file — that's the most common surprise with cascade layers.

CSS Output
@layer reset, base, components, utilities; @layer reset {  /* reset styles go here */} @layer base {  /* base styles go here */} @layer components {  /* components styles go here */} @layer utilities {  /* utilities styles go here */} 

How to use

01

Pick a starting point

Use a common preset (reset → base → components → utilities) or start from scratch.

02

Reorder your layers

Use the arrows to move layers earlier (lower priority) or later (higher priority — last one wins).

03

Check the priority stack

The visual stack shows exactly which layer wins, top to bottom.

04

Copy the CSS

Copy the @layer declaration and scaffold blocks straight into your stylesheet.
