✅ Benefits Achieved

Better Organization: Styles logically grouped by functionality
Improved Maintainability: Each module is focused and self-contained
Faster Development: Easier to find and modify specific components
Consistent Design: Centralized variables ensure design consistency
Easier Debugging: Issues can be quickly traced to relevant modules
Future-Proof: Modular structure supports easier updates and expansion

🔧 Technical Details

Original File: 3,011 lines in single admin.css
Refactored: 11 modules totaling 2,845 lines + 16-line main import file
Backup: Original file preserved as admin.css.backup
