I got a bit board earlier last night and decided to make it really quick and easy to add CSS. This supports all commonly-used CSS.
If you are quite familiar with CSS, you may have noticed that not all rules work with browsers and browser versions in a standard way. For example, if you wanted wanted something to be displayed as a flexbox, you would standard support and temporary support for this item to ensure that the container was behaving in the correct way. To do this you would place "-webkit-" in front of "flex" to get "display: -webkit-flex;". I found it time consuming to support the temporary versions of browsers that have support for this display mode, so I thought if there was a way to do this faster.

The code can be found at https://greasyfork.org/en/scripts/35370-add-css/code.
Documentation can be found at https://greasyfork.org/en/scripts/35370-add-css/ and in the code.
To use this on a userscript, add this to the metablock:
// @require https://greasyfork.org/scripts/35370-add-css/code/Add_CSS.js?version=231493

To use this on any webpage, add this to the <head>of a HTML file:
<script src = "https://greasyfork.org/scripts/35370-add-css/code/Add_CSS.js?version=231493"></script>


Feel free to use this and suggest features that could be supported. If you've got any questions about how to use it, inform me.
Also, I have noticed that the GM_addStyle functionality is no longer supported (at least by Greasymonkey). Maybe this could replace it.

Is this just to speed up the process of writing CSS or specifically for some third-party stuff like userscripts?

For development, while this might be convenient, I don't see the advantage of using this instead of a CSS preprocessor. SCSS mixins seem like a way to do this with about the same amount of (arguably less) work.

What's your intended use-case for this? I think I'm missing something here.

To speed up writing CSS. Never heard of SCSS before. Because of how I made this, you don't need to press as much keys to get the same CSS rules. Sometimes there are JS values such as an object's scrollHeight or width that I need to include in CSS rules - SCSS doesn't support this.
