Hey there! Let's break down each React styling approach and their ideal use cases so you can make the right call for your project.

1. 全局样式文件（Your Current Setup）

This approach is perfect when:

You're working on a small, simple project (like a landing page or a tiny tool) where you don't need complex styling separation.
You need universal, site-wide styles—think CSS resets (* { margin: 0; padding: 0; }), base typography, global color schemes, or styles for core elements like <body>, <a>, or <button> that should look consistent everywhere.
Your team is less familiar with modern styling patterns, and keeping things straightforward helps maintain productivity.
You want to reuse styles across multiple components without extra setup (just import the global file once in your root component).

2. Component-Level Styles (e.g., CSS Modules, Scoped Sass/Less)

Go for this when:

You're building a medium-to-large project with multiple components, and you want to avoid the classic "CSS specificity hell" or accidental style leaks (where one component's styles affect another).
You need modular, self-contained components—each component has its own .module.css (or .module.scss) file, and styles are scoped only to that component thanks to auto-generated unique class names.
Reusability is key: you can easily drop a component into another part of the app (or even another project) without worrying about breaking existing styles.
You prefer keeping styles in separate files (not mixed with JS) but still want the benefits of modularity.

3. CSS-in-JS (e.g., Styled Components, Emotion)

This is your best bet when:

You need dynamic, prop-driven styling—like changing a button's color based on an isPrimary prop, or adjusting a card's padding based on screen size directly in the component logic.
You're building highly customizable components (think design system components) where styles need to adapt to different contexts easily.
You want tight integration between component logic and styles: no more switching between JS and CSS files to tweak a component's appearance.
You need robust theme support—CSS-in-JS libraries make it trivial to define a global theme (colors, spacing, fonts) and apply it across all styled components, plus switching themes (light/dark mode) is a breeze.
You want to avoid dead code: unused styles are automatically removed when the component isn't used, which helps keep your bundle size small.

Stick with global styles if your project is small and simple.
Use component-level styles for medium projects where modularity and style isolation matter.
Go CSS-in-JS if you need dynamic styling, theme support, or tight component-style integration.
