CSS SUCKS
Problems
vars
nesting
performance
is there a solution?
YES!
preprocessing
A system written in another language that adds lots of
tasty goodies that don’t exists natively, while still spitting out something a browser can understand
{LESS} The dynamic stylesheet language.
Sass Syntactically Awesome StyleSheets
stylus Expressive, dynamic, robust CSS
None
ok... but... why?
it will make you CSS DRY
it will save your time
it will make your code easy to maintain
it will make your CSS more organized
it’s fun
talk is cheap, show me the code
START
<link rel="stylesheet/less" type="text/css" href="styles.less" />
<script src="less.js"></script>
IMPORT
@import "vars";
VARS
@border: 1px; @color: #111; @red: #842210;
.my-class { color: @color; border-left: @border; border-right: @border; }
.my-class { color: #111; border-left: 1px; border-right: 1px; }
OPERATIONS
.my-class { color: (@color + #030); border-right: (@border * 2);
}
.my-class { color: #114411; border-right: 2px; }
MIXIN
.border-radius (@radius: 5px) { -webkit-border-radius: @radius; -moz-border-radius: @radius; -ms-border-radius: @radius;
-o-border-radius: @radius; border-radius: @radius; }
.my-class { .border-radius(2px); } .another-class { .border-radius; }
.my-class { -webkit-border-radius: 2px; -moz-border-radius: 2px; -ms-border-radius: 2px; -o-border-radius: 2px;
border-radius: 2px; }
.another-class { -webkit-border-radius: 5px; -moz-border-radius: 5px; -ms-border-radius: 5px; -o-border-radius: 5px;
border-radius: 5px; }
NESTING
.my-class { h1 { font-weight: bold; } p { font-size:
12px; a { text-decoration: none; &:hover { color: @red; } } } }
.my-class h1 { font-weight: bold; } .my-class p { font-size:
12px; } .my-class p a { text-decoration: none; } .my-class p a:hover { color: #842210; }
