Sass me up, Scotty
by Ricardo Vazquez (2 hour 50 minute tutorial)
Sunday, August 11th 2013 at 2:15 pm until 5:05 pm
Join Ricardo Vazquez, UI/UX Designer at 500px, in discovering how to write beautiful CSS. This tutorial will cover one of the most popular preprocessors being used in production websites today. Sass uses the power of Ruby conventions in order to deliver an organized and logical structure to CSS.
Software requirements:
Make sure you have the Sass gem installed on your environment. Follow the instructions here to set up Sass on your machine. Important things to note is to set up syntax highlighting for your text editor. Should you wish to eliminate the use of Terminal, there are some apps for Sass that compile files as you save.
In order to quickly iterate through our examples, a free subscription to Codepen.io is strongly recommended.
