Examples

Starting with this CSS…

@region div.region {
    p {
    color: #fff;
        background-color: #000;
    }
}

Narrow the scope of the first rule within the @region to the first paragraph, and modify its background color

// corresponds to @region rule above:
rule = document.styleSheets[0].cssRules[0];

// modify first nested style's selector:
rule.cssRules[0].selectorText = 'article > p:first-of-type';

// modify first nested style's background-color property:
rule.cssRules[0].style.backgroundColor = '#777';

// inspect first nested style as read-only string:
console.log(rule.cssRules[0].cssText);

// inspect CSS syntax for entire @region rule:
console.log(rule.cssText);

The cssText above now dynamically reflects these altered values:

@region div.region {
    p:first-of-type {
    color: #fff;
        background-color: #777;
    }
}
