New features in SASS 3.3 (a talk by SASS-creator Chris Eppstein)

PreviousNext
sass

A very interesting conference talk by Chris Eppstein, creator of SASS itself, showing some of the new features in SASS 3.3:

  • ability to move the parent selector “&” BEHIND a selector, which allows totally different nesting
  • native debugging with Chrome’s DevTools
  • strings as a variable’s content
  • some interesting stuff taken from real programming lenguages, like string length getter function and string manipulation (capitalize, convert-to-lowercase, camel-casing etc.)
  • arrays / maps (and according foreach functions)
  • “meta scripting”: check if something exists
  • inject into parents
  • override/reset @media rules
  • changes in the scopes of variables

Side-note: PHP guys, have a look into How to use SASS in Laravel (with pure PHP) if you like. The used SASS compiler currently (March 2013) supports SASS 3.2, but 3.3 is in the making.
