Notes
- Some components have multiple SCSS files (e.g., Table: table.scss, table-grid.scss, table-tree-view.scss) - consolidate under a single component name.
- Some modifiers use dynamic values (
pf-m-align-items-*, pf-m-width-*, pf-m-inset-*) - list with asterisk notation.
- Include responsive variants, pseudo-state contexts, and element-specific modifiers (e.g.,
pf-v6-c-component__item.pf-m-current).
