   What is SASS?
   “Sass is a meta-language on top of CSS ... with
   more power than flat CSS allows. Sass both
   provides a simpler, more elegant syntax for CSS
   and implements various features that are useful for
   creating manageable stylesheets.”

   Why SASS over LESS?
   Compass - “drop-in” bits of SASS
   @extend() - allows for cleaner HTML
   Easily Embedding Media Queries

    Building a WP Theme
    • We want only one stylesheet
    • Our SASS folder should live
    independently
    • config.rb in the root, so we can use
    Codekit to optimize images & JS
