SASS (Syntactically Awesome Stylesheets) is a CSS preprocessor that makes managing styles more efficient and scalable. It adds advanced features like variables, mixins, functions, and modular code, allowing you to write maintainable, DRY (Don't Repeat Yourself) stylesheets.
- Beginner-Friendly: Simplified explanations for easy understanding.
- Advanced Topics: Covers complex topics like functions, loops, and conditionals.
- Real-World Examples: Includes practical, ready-to-use code snippets.
- Modular Structure: Organized into sections for easy navigation.
- Responsive Techniques: Learn how to build adaptive layouts using SASS.
Ensure you have the following installed:
- Node.js: Download here
- npm: Comes with Node.js
To install SASS globally, run:
npm install -g sass
Verify Installation
Check the version of SASS to confirm installation:
bash
Copy code
sass --version
π Getting Started
Clone this repository to your local machine:
bash
Copy code
git clone https://github.com/ExploitEngineer/EveryThing_About_Sassz.git
cd EveryThing_About_Sassz
Create a .scss file to write your SASS code.
Compile SASS to CSS:
bash
Copy code
sass input.scss output.css
Use the --watch flag for automatic compilation:
bash
Copy code
sass --watch input.scss:output.css
π Core Concepts
1. Variables
Define reusable values for colors, fonts, or sizes.
scss
Copy code
$primary-color: #4CAF50;
$font-stack: 'Roboto', sans-serif;
body {
background-color: $primary-color;
font-family: $font-stack;
}
2. Nesting
Organize your styles logically with nested rules.
scss
Copy code
nav {
ul {
list-style: none;
li {
display: inline-block;
a {
text-decoration: none;
color: $primary-color;
}
}
}
}
3. Mixins
Use mixins to reuse styles throughout your project.
scss
Copy code
@mixin flex-center {
display: flex;
justify-content: center;
align-items: center;
}
.container {
@include flex-center;
height: 100vh;
}
4. Extend/Inheritance
Share styles across multiple selectors with @extend.
scss
Copy code
%button-styles {
padding: 10px 15px;
border-radius: 4px;
font-size: 16px;
}
.button {
@extend %button-styles;
background-color: $primary-color;
}
.secondary-button {
@extend %button-styles;
background-color: gray;
}
5. Functions
Use custom functions for calculations and logic.
scss
Copy code
@function calculate-spacing($multiplier) {
@return 8px * $multiplier;
}
.box {
margin: calculate-spacing(2);
}
6. Partials and Imports
Split your stylesheets into manageable files using partials (_filename.scss) and @use.
7. Conditional Logic and Loops
Use conditionals and loops for dynamic styling.
scss
Copy code
@mixin respond-to($breakpoint) {
@if $breakpoint == 'mobile' {
@media (max-width: 768px) {
@content;
}
}
}
.container {
@include respond-to('mobile') {
display: flex;
flex-direction: column;
}
}
πΌ Code Examples
Example: Responsive Mixins
scss
Copy code
@mixin respond($device) {
@if $device == 'tablet' {
@media (max-width: 768px) {
@content;
}
} @else if $device == 'mobile' {
@media (max-width: 480px) {
@content;
}
}
}
.card {
width: 400px;
@include respond('tablet') {
width: 300px;
}
@include respond('mobile') {
width: 200px;
}
}
