SASS: Programming

Included in the course

What you'll learn

• Use mixins as functions.
• Create your own functions and use them.
• Work with various data types.
• Use loops and conditional constructions.

Description

The SASS programming course is a logical continuation of the SASS: Fundamentals course. In addition to extending CSS and reusing styles, the preprocessors added constructs available in other programming languages: creating functions, using loops, and using conditional constructs. This has allowed developers to reduce the amount of code while adding functionality not available when writing CSS. In this course, you'll explore, step-by-step, the programming capabilities of the SASS preprocessor.
