Sass is the most mature, stable, and powerful professional grade CSS extension language in the world. In this series we will be covering the basics of Sass:
Preprocessing
Variables
Nesting
Partials
Import
Mixins
Inheritance
Operators
CSS on its own can be fun, but stylesheets are getting larger, more complex, and harder to maintain. This is where a preprocessor can help. Sass lets you use features that don't exist in CSS yet like variables, nesting, mixins, inheritance and other nifty goodies that make writing CSS fun again.
Once you start tinkering with Sass, it will take your preprocessed Sass file and save it as a normal CSS file that you can use in your website.
The most direct way to make this happen is in your terminal. Once Sass is installed, you can compile your Sass to CSS using the sass command. You'll need to tell Sass which file to build from, and where to output CSS to. For example, running sass input.sass output.css from your terminal would take a single Sass file, input.scss, and compile that file to output.css.
