fela-plugin-expand-shorthand

Make sure you've read Caveats / Shorthand & Longhand Properties and The Shorthand-Longhand Problem in Atomic CSS before using this plugin as there might be better solutions to it.

Expands shorthand properties in style objects so that only longhand properties are used.

It uses inline-style-expand-shorthand under the hood. Check the repo if you're interested in which properties are supported.

It comes in two different modes: One that simply expands the shorthands and one that merges the resulting longhands with existing longhands in the style object depending on the specificity of that property.
