 * As I know, CSS accommodates variables, making it easier to style websites.
 * Like this:
   _:root{ –varibale\_css: blablabla; }
 * Unfortunately, the Custom CSS Block here does not support CSS variables.
 * Are there any plans to update to support CSS variables?

 * Hey [@nuggix](https://wordpress.org/support/users/nuggix/),
 * We use Core’s editor for CSS linting, so we can’t technically “support” things
   which aren’t supported by the Core linter.
 * However, those are just for linting and you can click on Override button that
   appears and the code should still be saved and should work as long as it’s supported
   by your browser.
 * Let me know if it works for you!
