Stylelint config that sorts related property declarations by grouping together following the order:

1. Positioning
2. Box Model
3. Typography
4. Visual
5. Animation
6. Misc

```css
.declaration-order {
/* Positioning */
position: absolute;
top: 0;
right: 0;
bottom: 0;
left: 0;
z-index: 10;

/* Box Model */
display: block;
float: right;
width: 100px;
height: 100px;
margin: 10px;
padding: 10px;

/* Typography */
color: #888;
font: normal 16px Helvetica, sans-serif;
line-height: 1.3;
text-align: center;

/* Visual */
background-color: #eee;
border: 1px solid #888;
border-radius: 4px;
opacity: 1;

/* Animation */
transition: all 1s;

/* Misc */
user-select: none;
}
```

## Usage

1. Add `stylelint`, `stylelint-order` and this package to your project:

```bash
npm install --save-dev stylelint stylelint-order stylelint-config-rational-order
# or, if you prefer yarn over npm:
yarn add --dev stylelint stylelint-order stylelint-config-rational-order
```

2. Add this package to the end of your extends array inside Stylelint
configuration (.stylelintrc for example):

```javascript
{
"extends": [
// "stylelint-config-standard",
"stylelint-config-rational-order"
]
}
```

This shareable config contains the following:
```javascript
{
"plugins": [
"stylelint-order",
"stylelint-config-rational-order/plugin"
],
"rules": {
"order/properties-order": [],
"plugin/rational-order": [true, {
"border-in-box-model": false,
"empty-line-between-groups": false,
}]
}
}
```

Since it adds `stylelint-order` and `stylelint-config-rational-order` to plugins and also adds required rules, you don't have to do this yourself when extending this config.

## Optional options / rules

#### border-in-box-model

Defines to which group the **border** property belongs to.

If `true` **border** property belongs to the **box model section**.
The default value is `false` (**border** property belongs to the **visual section**).

#### empty-line-between-groups

If `true` adds an empty line between groups. The default value is `false`.

## FAQ

Why should I use the rational order and group and sort CSS properties by type instead of alphabetical order?
