What is Sass?

sass-lang.com

What is Sass?
• CSS on steroids
• Adds Variables, Mixins, Nesting,
Inheritance, and more…

• It’s a meta-language that compiles
to plain old CSS

• Two “ﬂavors” - Sass & SCSS

Sass came first

body
background-color: #fff
color: #000
font: 16px/1.6 Georgia
margin: 0

SCSS came next

body {
background-color: #fff;
color: #000;
font: 16px/1.6 Georgia;
margin: 0;
}

body#home.home {
.content {
#learn-more {
#faq {
margin-top: 20px;
aside {
width: 300px;
padding: 0 40px;
h4 span {
@include sans-serif-font(20px);
}
ul {
color: #666;
font-size: 12px;
line-height: 1.5;
list-style: square;
padding-left: 1.2em;
li {
margin-bottom: 8px;
{
li:before {
color: red;
}
}
}
ol {
@include sans-serif-font(24px, $heading-color);
list-style: decimal;
max-width: 480px;
p {
font-size: 16px;
margin: 1em 0;
}
}
}
}
}
}

ol {
@include sans-serif-font(24px, $hea
max-width: 480px;
p {
font-size: 16px;
margin: 1em 0;
}
}
}
}
}
}

body#home.home { body#home.home
.content { .content
#learn-more { #learn-more
#faq { #faq
margin-top: 20px; margin-top: 20px
aside { aside
width: 300px; width: 300px
padding: 0 40px; padding: 0 40px
h4 span { h4 span
@include sans-serif-font(20px); @include sans-serif-font(20px)
} ul
ul { color: #666
color: #666; font-size: 12px
font-size: 12px; line-height: 1.5
line-height: 1.5; list-style: square
list-style: square; padding-left: 1.2em
padding-left: 1.2em; li
li { margin-bottom: 8px
margin-bottom: 8px; li:before
{ color: red
li:before { ol
color: red; @include sans-serif-font(24px, $heading-color)
} list-style: decimal
} max-width: 480px
} p
ol { font-size: 16px
@include sans-serif-font(24px, $heading-color); margin: 1em 0
max-width: 480px;
p {
font-size: 16px;
margin: 1em 0;
}
}

}
}
Sass > SCSS
}
}

Let’s talk about:
1. Nesting
2. Mix-ins
3. Organization and Refactoring
4. Math
5. Wrapping Up

.foo {
  -moz-border-radius: 10px;
  -webkit-border-radius: 10px;
  border-radius: 10px;
}

}

.bar {
  property: value;
}

.dude {
  property: value;
  property: value;
}

.guy {
  property: value;

When using Sass…

.foo
  +border_radius(10px)

Will render as:
.foo {
}

The mixin:

@mixin border_radius($radius)
  -moz-border-radius: $radius
  -webkit-border-radius: $radius
  border-radius: $radius

Another example:

.foo
  +box_shadow(0, 0, 5px, #AAA)

Will render as:
.foo {
  -moz-box-shadow: 0 0 5px #AAA;
  -webkit-box-shadow: 0 0 5px #AAA;
  box-shadow: 0 0 5px #AAA;
}

Or, pre-populate the mixin:

@mixin box_shadow($h_offset: 0, $v_offset: 0,
-->$blur_radius: 5px, $color: #AAA)
  -moz-box-shadow: $h_offset $v_offset $blur_radius $color
  -webkit-box-shadow: $h_offset $v_offset $blur_radius $color
  box-shadow: $h_offset $v_offset $blur_radius $color

--> Denotes “not a real line break”

Now, no argument is needed:

.foo
  +box_shadow

Will render as:
.foo {
  -moz-box-shadow: 0 0 5px #AAA;
  -webkit-box-shadow: 0 0 5px #AAA;
  box-shadow: 0 0 5px #AAA;
}

Or, you can override:

.foo
  +box_shadow(2, 2, 10, #CCC)

Will render as:
.foo {
  -moz-box-shadow: 2px 2px 10px #CCC;
  -webkit-box-shadow: 2px 2px 10px #CCC;
  box-shadow: 2px 2px 10px #CCC;
}

Gradients!
.foo
  +box_gradient(#FFFFFF, #000000)

Will render as:
.foo {
  background-image: -moz-linear-gradient(top, #FFFFFF,
-->#000000)
background-image: -o-linear-gradient(top, #FFFFFF,
-->#000000);
  background-image: -webkit-gradient(linear,left top,left
--> bottom,color-stop(0, #FFFFFF),color-stop(1, #000000))
  background-image: -webkit-linear-gradient(#FFFFFF,
-->#000000)
  background-image: linear-gradient(top, #FFFFFF, #000000)
  filter: progid:DXImageTransform.Microsoft.gradient
-->(startColorStr='#FFFFFF', EndColorStr='#000000')
}

--> Denotes “not a real line break” http://css3please.com/

The mixin:

@mixin box_gradient($start,$end)
  background-image: -moz-linear-gradient(top, !start, !end)
background-image: -o-linear-gradient(top, !start, !end);
--> bottom,color-stop(0, !start),color-stop(1, !end))
  background-image: -webkit-linear-gradient(!start, !end)
  background-image: linear-gradient(top, !start, !end)
-->(startColorStr='!start', EndColorStr='!end')

--> Denotes “not a real line break”

.dropdown-inner {
  -moz-border-radius: 0 3px 3px 3px;
  -webkit-border-radius: 0 3px 3px 3px;
  border-radius: 0 3px 3px 3px;
-->#FCF5DE)
-->#000000);
--> bottom,color-stop(0, #FFFFFF),color-stop(1, #FCF5DE))
-->#FCF5DE)
  background-image: linear-gradient(top, #FFFFFF, #FCF5DE)
-->(startColorStr='#FFFFFF', EndColorStr='#FCF5DE')
}

.dropdown-inner {
  +border_radius(0 3px 3px 3px
  -moz-border-radius: 03px 3px) 3px;
  +box_shadow(1, 1, 4, #CCC)
  -webkit-border-radius: 0 3px 3px 3px;
  border-radius: 0 3px 3px 3px;
+box_gradient(#FFFFFF, #FCF5DE)
-->#FCF5DE)
-->#000000);
--> bottom,color-stop(0, #FFFFFF),color-stop(1, #FCF5DE))
-->#FCF5DE)
  background-image: linear-gradient(top, #FFFFFF, #FCF5DE)
-->(startColorStr='#FFFFFF', EndColorStr='#FCF5DE')
}

More with mixins:

• Re-usable interface elements (buttons,
headers—with or without arguments).

• Reset styles (data tables, lists, etc.).
• References to frequently-accessed sprites.
• Frequently used IE hacks.
• Etc.

Color Manipulation:

.faded
background-color: fade_out(#000, 0.4)

Will render as:
.faded {
background-color: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.6);
}

lighten & darken:

.lighter
background-color: lighten(#000064, 30%)

Will render as:
.lighter {
background-color: #4B4BFF;
}

complement

.comp
background-color: complement(#000064)

Will render as:
.comp {
background-color: #646400;
}

With a variable:

$default_color: #000064
.level1
background-color: $default_color
.level2
background-color: lighten($default_color, 15%)
.level3
.level4
.level5

With a variable:

.level1 {
background-color: #000064; }
.level2 {
background-color: #0000b1; }
.level3 {
background-color: #0000fd; }
.level4 {
background-color: #4b4bff; }
.level5 {
background-color: #9797ff; }

Simple math:

$container_width: 1000px
$photo_width: 480px
.caption
width: $container_width - $photo_width

Will render as:
.caption {
width: 520px;
}

We need
margin-left
and width.

The mixin:

@mixin bar($start,$end)
$start_value: $start - 1870
margin-left: ($start_value*8) + px
$length: $end - $start
width: ($length*8) - 4px

The mixin:

$start_value: $start - 1870 Pass in
margin-left: ($start_value*8) + px arguments for
start and end
year.
width: ($length*8) - 4px

The mixin:

$start_value is
$start_value: $start - 1870
the difference
margin-left: ($start_value*8) + px between the
$length: $end - $start start year and
width: ($length*8) - 4px 1870.

The mixin:

$start_value: $start - 1870 Multiply
$start_value by
8 to get the left
$length: $end - $start margin (8 pixels
width: ($length*8) - 4px per year).

The mixin:

$start_value: $start - 1870 Career $length
will be used to
determine the
$length: $end - $start width of the
width: ($length*8) - 4px box.

The mixin:

$start_value: $start - 1870 Again, multiply
margin-left: ($start_value*8) + px by 8 to get the
width, and also
subtract 4 pixels
width: ($length*8) - 4px (padding).

The magic:

#jbagwell
+bar(1991, 2005)

@mixin bar(1991,2005)
$start_value: 1991 - 1870 = 121
margin-left: (121*8) + px = 968px
$length: 2005 - 1991 = 14
width: (14*8) - 4px) = 108px

The magic:

#jbagwell
+bar(1991, 2005)

Will render as:
#jbagwell {
margin-left: 968px;
width: 108px;
}

margin-left: 16px;
width: 164px; }
#pgalvin {

Repeat: margin-left: 40px;
width: 132px; }
#kkelly {
margin-left: 64px;
width: 116px; }
#mward {
margin-left: 64px;
width: 124px; }
#dbrouthers {
margin-left: 72px;
width: 196px; }
#mwelch {
margin-left: 80px;
width: 92px; }
#tkeefe {
margin-left: 80px;
width: 100px; }
#rconnor {
margin-left: 80px;
width: 132px; }
#bewing {
margin-left: 80px;
width: 132px; }
#cradbourn {
margin-left: 88px;
width: 76px; }
#jclarkson {
margin-left: 96px;
width: 92px; }
#bmcphee {
margin-left: 96px;
width: 132px; }
#tmccarthy {
margin-left: 112px;
width: 92px; }
