Compiler: Support for emitting prefixed css-functions
On older iOS devices, the calc function must be prefixed with -webkit-. I think it would be helpful if the ^:prefix metadata could be applied to css-functions as well.
I'm inclined to agree. The only question I have is what should the output look like in that case? Let's suppose we have
{:some-property ^:prefix ^:vendors [:webkit] (some-css-fn ...)}
Do we compile separate declarations for each vendor?
lol {
some-property: -webkit-some-css-fn(...);
some-property: some-css-fn(...);
}
Yes, that's the correct way of doing this according to MDN. See https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/CSS/calc#Examples

You might also want to consider the following: transtion: all 1s, -webkit-transform 2s;
OK. I think this is doable but it's going to require a bit of forethought and planning before we can make this happen. One concern is
^:prefix {:some-property ^:prefix (some-css-fn ...)}
I suppose we could make the assumption that if, for example, the vendors were [:moz :webkit] we'd compile three lines: one for -moz-, one for -webkit-, and one unprefixed.
@jeluard I think we can handle that case during declaration expansion but that's kind of gross. The compiler needs to be reworked to operate on a data format like tools.analyzer has. I've been toying with that idea and I'm willing to bet we could make a lot of these problems go away by moving in that direction.

Sounds reasonable.
@the-kenny @jeluard If you guys think of any more edge cases be sure to post them here. I want to close out some of the other stale issues before moving on this.
Also not sure how it fits here but I've been thinking it would be really nice to leverage CSS.supports for the ClojureScript implementation. It would allow to generate the proper flavor at runtime and skip the useless ones.
