Sass and Less are CSS preprocessors that add features like variables, nesting, mixins, and inheritance to regular CSS. Sass was designed by Hampton Catlin and developed using SassScript, while Less was designed by Alexis Sellier and allows real-time compilation via Less.js. Both preprocessors provide mechanisms for variables, nesting, mixins, and more to make writing CSS more efficient.
Rob Walker from Papertrail takes us through his recent journey from regular CSS to SCSS. If you’re thinking of making the switch yourself and just need a little push, this is the talk for you.
Sass is a scripting language that is interpreted into Cascading Style Sheets (CSS). SassScript is the scripting language itself. Sass consists of two syntaxes. The original syntax, called "the indented syntax", uses a syntax similar to Haml.
From this presentation, we will understand,
- Introduction to Sass
- Why adding Sass in our workflow
- Advantages of Sass
- How to convert our CSS into Sass
- Compass
- What is Compass
- How to use sass with compass

This Presentation is based on the different effects of css like "box-shadow, text-shadow". We can also give these effects on the inner side of the text and any image or box.
Brief overview about difference of adaptive and responsive web design, main principles of build responsive layout, and main component of responsive layout is media query.
Media queries are one of the most exciting aspects about CSS today. They will allow us to change our layouts to suit the exact need of different devices - without changing the content. This presentation explains what Media queries are, how to use them, how to target the iPhone and how to create flexible layouts.

LESS vs. SASS - CSS Precompiler ShowdownKevin Powell
In this presentation I'll show you why you should precompile, what LESS and SASS are, how they fit into your workflow, and which one I believe to be better based on a case study using both precompilers.

DRY CSS A don’t-repeat-yourself methodology for creating efficient, unified a...Jer Clarke
Slides for a talk at the ConFoo 2012 conference in Montreal. I explain a simple yet powerful CSS architecture that avoids duplication and increases design consistency by grouping shared properties together rather than redefining them over and over. In the process I explain preprocessors like LESS and SASS, as well as the OOCSS fad, pointing out how they are insufficiently standards-compliant.
In this PPT we discuss about the differences between wordpress, Joomla and drupal. To see our work on all these platforms go to : http://www.avigma.com/projects/

19 Mini Productivity Hacks For A Simple (But An Awesome) DayThomas Oppong
When a problem is large or complex, and the optimal solution is unclear, applying simple mini productivity hacks allow you to begin making progress towards a solution even though you can’t visualize the entire path from your starting point.
Consider these productivity hacks a reminder.
SCSS is a an extension of CSS that adds power and elegance to the basic language.
It helps keep large stylesheets well organized and get small stylesheets up and running quickly.
This recipe provides a structured approach for using SCSS Pre-processor for your web applications.
Features covered :
• Pre-processing
• Variables
• Nesting
• Partials
• Imports
• Mixins
• Inheritance
• Operators
Syntactically Awesome Stylesheet - A workshop by Citytech SoftwareRitwik Das
SASS (Syntactically Awesome Stylesheet) is a CSS pre-processor which helps to reduce repetition with CSS and saves time. It is more stable and powerful CSS extension language that describes style of document cleanly and structurally.
I don't know about you, but vanilla CSS always leaves me wanting more. It's a fairly simple language, can do some pretty powerful things, but after a while.. well, it can become rather tedious to work with. Enter Sass: Syntactically Awesome Stylesheets. Sass is a CSS meta-language and precompiler that makes the prettification of your website a breeze by adding invaluable features of more traditional programming languages. In this session, we'll jump right in to the Sass workflow and cover all the key game changers - nesting, variables, mixins, inheritance, and directives. We'll also cover some of the gotchyas, tools and extensions, and tips for organization and coding standards.

SASS/SCSS Preprocessor can be a great help to create and manage complex css structures. It boosts css with pro features like defining and executing Variables, Functions and Mixins.
Attached is an understanding of how SCSS works and can be used for implementation in website frameworks. One can apply certain techniques of scss in their website frameworks.
This discussion will focus primarily on the two most popular CSS pre-processors, LESS and SASS. I will take some time to compare the two, by highlighting both their similarities and differences. Though these two “languages” share similar features, the compiler interprets them differently. Furthermore, certain functions and features are easier to execute in one language than the other. The goal of these comparison is to give the audience a feel for the syntax and to demonstrate how some of the features can be used in a practical way.
Moreover, further into the presentation we will take a deeper dive into the advance features of LESS and SASS. In this sections we will explore the latest features of both pre-processors and see how they work with popular 3rd party vendors and libraries. The audience will have a chance to learn about the frameworks and what makes these platforms so special!
Less is a CSS pre-processor, meaning that it extends the CSS language, adding features that allow variables, mixins, functions and many other techniques that allow you to make CSS that is more maintainable, themeable and extendable.

2. WHAT ARE THEY?
designed by Hampton Catlin and
developed by Natalie Weizenbaum. SassScript
provides the following mechanisms: variables,
nesting, mixins, selector inheritance, and more.
Sass consists of two syntaxes. The original syntax,
called "the indented syntax", uses a syntax similar
to Haml. The newer syntax, "SCSS", uses block
formatting like that of CSS.
Also, Compass, the companion open-source CSS
authoring framework, can be used.

designed by Alexis Sellier. LESS
provides the following mechanisms: variables,
nesting, mixins, operators and functions; the main
difference between LESS and other CSS precompil-
ers being that LESS allows real-time compilation via
LESS.js by the browser. LESS can run on the
client-side and server-side, or can be compiled into
plain CSS.

9. Conditionals & Control Structures
@if lightness($color) > 30% {
background-color: black;
}
@else {
background-color: white;
}
.mixin (@color) when (lightness(@color) > 30%) {
background-color: black;
}
.mixin (@color) when (lightness(@color) =< 30%) {
background-color: white;
}
@for $i from 1px to 10px {
.border-#{i} {
border: $i solid blue;
}
}
https://gist.github.com/chriseppstein/674726
.border-i { border: 1px solid blue;}
.border-i { border: 2px solid blue;}
........
.border-i { border: 9px solid blue;}
output
Less does not provide any conditionals or looping structures. Instead, it provides mixin guards and pattern-
matching which can be used to similar effect.
Sass and Less provides provide boolean types true and false, the and, or , and not operators as well as <,
>, <=, >=, == operators. There are minor syntax differences between the two (Sass syntax shown here).

Compile to Sass to CSS
compass watch
This is the easiest part. Sass and Compass does all the hard work, so run this command and let Compass do its thing.
Compile to Less to CSS
LESS can run on the client-side and server-side, or can be compiled into plain CSS by less.js. However, not for
production. To compile run this command using Less.js everytime.
