I did some Pascal back in the day, and had forgotten about that feature. However I was soon seduced by the beauty of C.

Are mostly CSS related
I use a Bootstrap input group[^], an input with a fancy search box in it, and the search box is 1px higher than the input.
I copy-pasted it from the website, but it seems the 1px difference is there as well (in two out of four examples).
Never mind, can't seem to get it fixed as that's always the case with CSS.
Next problem, I use Vue.js with Vue-select, something like Select2, but it works nice with Vue.js.
The v-select works very nice, until I put it in a table.
Because, of course, tables always mess up all styling...
Again, can't seem to get it fixed.
Some dynamically created element gets a style of "width: 100%;", removing it (using the browser dev tools) fixes the problem, but it's not in a class or anything.
To quote an Australian acquaintance of ours... "FAAAAAAAAAAARK!!!!!!!"
Is there really nothing better than CSS?
It doesn't even have to be good, just better.

I feel your pain. Some things with Bootstrap (and other third party controls, like jqWidgets) I can't style correctly (particularly the width and height issues you mentioned) without overriding the class or id style with !important . The world of CSS is a mess, IMO.
[edit]At times, particularly when working on a 3rd party web application that I don't have control over the rendering but that provides the ability to specify a custom CSS, I've had to revert to using the "Copy Selector" feature of the Chrome debugger to get to the element that I need to style.

I'm using SCSS, wouldn't want to type CSS without a preprocessor anymore, except for the simplest of applications

Unfortunately, if I don't do it no one does and my customer won't be happy.
I believe I may call myself "full stack" developer

I haven't done any serious web dev in a few years now.. but I remember how finicky Bootstrap can be a t times...
Have a look at w3.css, it might offer a better experience perhaps?

I'm using Bootstrap and it's too late to switch now, but I'll keep it in mind for a next project

Have a look at the css grid (see, e.g. [here^]) layout system, if you havn't. Some proponents of it think it is css done right, to which I tend to agree.
While traditional css layout references the conents themselve, which could intefer or mess with each other and is harder to control, the css grid method separates coordination from the content. It enables a user to create lot simpler, more accurate and flexible layout systems ...

I'm using Bootstrap grid, but that's not going to fix my 1px difference or the fact that a table messes up this third-party component

You can mix whatever grid system with css grid. css grid can be used either as a page level grid system or local grid system to construct controls, like the input group one, with ease (a three columns one row grid, but I haven't tried it). Hopefully it may solve your 1px off problem (I also experienced this problem before and haven't find it urgent enough to fix)

Crikey! I bought my first in about 1999, and it took months to get it configured, using extensive help from the ISP and the SonicWall support experts (not first level). This one's no simpler, and it didn't come with a manual. Why do they have to make these machines so difficult set up? All acronyms, no explanations, and online help that is utterly useless - true Microsoft copies. It's an amazingly powerful machine for protecting a network, but how does one tell if it's been set up right, when everything is written in a foreign language? Grrrr....

I hate to say this, but ... it's our fault.
The people who write technical manuals are often the people who write the software, and most of 'em have difficulty stringing two sentences together, much less thinking like a user! It's easy to understand - for them - because it is an abstract of the software, rather than something genuinely written to help a novice. And that's probably because it's documentation, and that's "boring" so it gets chucked together with as little effort as possible.

I know how bad I'm when explaining technical things to non-technical people, so I constantly refuse to write documentation... The only kid of documentation I write is for fellow developers on the team...

Does your team need a technical writer ?
