Updating your variables
The main difference in variables is the symbol used to denote one. In Less we use an @
symbol for our variables, while in Sass you use the $
symbol. Here are a couple of examples for you:
/* LESS */ @red: #c00; @black: #000; @white: #fff; /* SASS */ $red: #c00; $black: #000; $white: #fff;
As you can see, that is pretty easy to do. A simple find and replace should do most of the work for you. However, if you are using @import
in your stylesheets, make sure this retains an @
symbol.
Updating @import statements
Another small change in Sass is how you import different stylesheets using the @import
keyword. First, let's take a look at how you do this in Less:
@import "components/_buttons.less";
Now let's compare how we do this using Sass:
@import "components/_buttons.scss";
As you can see, it's almost identical. You just need to make sure you name all your files with the .scss
extension. Then update...
