LESS
It's time CSS was done right – LESS is leaner css.
Explained
LESS allows you to write CSS the way (I think) it was meant to, that is: with variables, nested rules and mixins!
Here's some example LESS code:
@dark: #110011;
.outline { border: 1px solid black }
.article {
a { text-decoration: none }
p { color: @dark }
.outline;
}
And the CSS output it produces:
.outline { border: 1px solid black }
.article a { text-decoration: none }
.article p { color: #110011 }
.article { border: 1px solid black }
If you have CSS nightmares, just
$ lessc style.less
For more information, see you at [https://lesscss.org]
