If I have a dozen CSS selectors, and want to assign :hover properties to all of them, I’m used to doing this:

selector, selector2, someOtherSelector, someSelector div {
    //some properties
}
selector:hover, selector2:hover, someOtherSelector:hover, someSelector div:hover {
    //some properties
}

Typing :hover four times seems redundant. Is there a way to group the selectors like

(selector, selector2, someOtherSelector, someSelector div):hover {
     //some properties
}

instead?

    If they all share the same hover properties you could create a class that is shared for all that defines your :hover

    So you’d get:

    allSelectors, selector, selector2, someOtherSelector, someSelector div {
        //some properties
    }
    allSelectors:hover {
        //some properties
    }
    

    Re-usable classes makes for cleaner and less code.
