CSS on one end, "empty" deployment... Then theming, before... Testing!
Architecture is key for a performing application given Drupal's flexibility and module dependence.
The learning curve is steep yet worth it and the community is always available when needed.
Drupal is very flexible. It allows functional testing in a phased development approach.
UI design to CSS integration is another possibility. I pushed for Jekyll adoption and am preparing for Omego or blank theme integration.
Backed by a very active community, Drupal's ecosystem is a never-ending source of initiatives and discoveries!
