What Is Sass and Scss?

Sass/Scss is a template programming language that allows us to write faster, more understandable, and more functional CSS. The project’s website is http://sass-lang.com, where you can find all the information you need.

Sass is a CSS extension that adds power and elegance to the base language. Sass provides variables, nested rules, mixins (functions), import, and more — all with a syntax fully compatible with CSS. Sass helps organize large style work and makes it quick to work with small styles, especially with the Compass style library.

Features

• Fully CSS compatible.
• Language extensions such as variables and mixins (can be called functions)
• Many useful functions for manipulating other values and colors
• Advanced features such as control directives for libraries
• Well-formatted and customizable output

Syntax

There are two syntaxes: scss and sass. The first is what you know as scss (Sassy CSS), a syntax that closely resembles CSS syntax and uses the .scss file extension. The second is the older syntax known as sass, with the .sass file extension.

Convert

A great feature is the convert operation. Whether you write in Sass or Scss syntax, the convert operation allows these two syntaxes to be converted into each other, as follows:

Convert Sass to SCSS

The convert operation transforms Sass into Scss: $sass-convert style.sass style.scss

Convert SCSS to Sass

The convert operation transforms Scss into Sass: $sass-convert style.scss style.sass I’ll cover installation and further explanation in the next article, see you around.
