> Yoga also does not support styling properties that have no impact on layout, such as color or background properties.

Does that mean that Yoga is too low level to be used directly by application developers? Who's the intended audience?

Yoga is a Layout engine, not a UI or graphics engine. It's output is basically just the size and position of those objects put into it. So you'd need a bridge to use it for existing UI systems or build a new UI system on top of it (just like what React Native did).
