I now save the variables.scss file. | 6,862.7 | 3.04 |
And now, without doing anything--
take a look at my terminal-- | 6,865.74 | 3.3 |
Sass detected a change
to variables.scss, | 6,869.04 | 3.61 |
so it gave me a new version
of my original CSS file. | 6,872.65 | 4.38 |
If I go back to my web browser now,
refresh the page, now, all of the text | 6,877.03 | 4.51 |
is green, as I would expect it to be. | 6,881.54 | 3.59 |
So that's one of the very powerful
features that Sass gives us. | 6,885.13 | 3.5 |
It gives us the ability to add
variables to our CSS code just | 6,888.63 | 3.54 |
to factor out commonalities. | 6,892.17 | 1.59 |
If there are common fonts, common
colors, common borders, common styling, | 6,893.76 | 3.96 |
that I want to apply to a
lot of different things, | 6,897.72 | 2.28 |
it becomes much easier just
to use Sass in order to do so. | 6,900 | 4.31 |
And finally, we'll take a look
at a couple of other features | 6,904.31 | 2.92 |
that Sass gives us the
ability to do, one of them | 6,907.23 | 3.18 |
is the ability to nest CSS selectors
inside of other CSS selectors. | 6,910.41 | 5.5 |
So one thing you've seen
so far, for example, | 6,915.91 | 2.19 |
is that in CSS, if I wanted to style all
of the unordered lists that are inside | 6,918.1 | 5.93 |
of divs, for example, I could say
like, div arrow unordered list, | 6,924.03 | 5.67 |
in order to style unordered
lists that are inside of divs. | 6,929.7 | 4.74 |
What Sass will do is that will give
us a bit of a nicer syntax for doing | 6,934.44 | 4.2 |
this type of thing, in particular,
by allowing us to nest CSS inside | 6,938.64 | 4.98 |
of other pieces of CSS. | 6,943.62 | 2.45 |
So just as an example
of this, I'll go ahead | 6,946.07 | 2.11 |
and open up a file I already
brought, called nesting.html. | 6,948.18 | 4.74 |
And so here is what we might
see inside of nesting.html. | 6,952.92 | 2.63 |
Here is the body of the page. | 6,955.55 | 2.44 |
Inside the body of the page,
I have a div, inside of which | 6,957.99 | 3.9 |
is a paragraph inside the div and
also a list, an unordered list, | 6,961.89 | 3.72 |
or ul, that's inside
of this div as well. | 6,965.61 | 3.67 |
And then we also have a paragraph
that's outside of the div. | 6,969.28 | 2.93 |
And a list that's outside of
the div in addition to that. | 6,972.21 | 3.2 |
So a number of different elements,
some of which are located inside | 6,975.41 | 2.8 |
of other elements. | 6,978.21 | 1.05 |
And what I'd like to do is be very
precise about how I style these pages. | 6,979.26 | 5.39 |
What Sass is going to
allow us to do is it | 6,984.65 | 2.41 |
lets us write a Sass file that
looks a little something like this. | 6,987.06 | 4.39 |
Let's take a look at what it's doing. | 6,991.45 | 1.55 |
It's saying, for the
entire div, I would like | 6,993 | 2.97 |
to give that div a
font size of 18 pixels. | 6,995.97 | 3.18 |
And then, what CSS normally
doesn't allow us to do, | 6,999.15 | 3.06 |
but we can do now using
the power of Sass, | 7,002.21 | 2.4 |
is say, for any paragraphs
that are inside of that div, | 7,004.61 | 3.9 |
go ahead and give those
paragraphs the color of blue. | 7,008.51 | 2.73 |
And for any unordered lists
that are inside of the div, | 7,011.24 | 3.09 |
give those unordered
lists a color of green. | 7,014.33 | 2.94 |
By nesting these CSS
selectors inside of others, | 7,017.27 | 3.18 |
we've been able to get
across the idea that I only | 7,020.45 | 2.91 |
want to style the paragraph
if it is inside of a div. | 7,023.36 | 3.42 |
And this is just a little bit
of a nicer, cleaner syntax | 7,026.78 | 3.12 |
for doing some of these more complex
styling tasks that might come up. | 7,029.9 | 4.57 |
So what does this actually look like? | 7,034.47 | 1.55 |
If I like take this SCSS file
and turn it into normal CSS, | 7,036.02 | 4.17 |
what is the result going to be? | 7,040.19 | 1.83 |
Well, let's take a look. | 7,042.02 | 1.36 |
We can try it out by let me
go into my nesting folder | 7,043.38 | 3.77 |
where all these files are located. | 7,047.15 | 1.89 |
And if I run Sass nesting.scss,
turn it into nesting.css, | 7,049.04 | 7.93 |
now let's open up nesting.css
and see what it looks like. | 7,056.97 | 3.74 |
Here, it's turned into
a take all of the divs, | 7,060.71 | 2.73 |
give them a font size of 18 pixels. | 7,063.44 | 2.24 |
And then, we're using the same
descendant selector notation | 7,065.68 | 3.97 |
that we saw before, where all
the paragraphs inside of divs | 7,069.65 | 3.27 |
should be colored blue, all the
unordered lists inside of a div | 7,072.92 | 3.21 |
should be colored green. | 7,076.13 | 1.29 |
And this certainly works. | 7,077.42 | 1.21 |
And we could have just written
this CSS from the beginning, | 7,078.63 | 2.75 |
but it can be a little bit cleaner, a
little bit easier to read to use Sass | 7,081.38 | 4.35 |
in order to really say,
paragraphs inside of divs | 7,085.73 | 3.2 |
should be structured this way, unordered
lists are styled in some other way. | 7,088.93 | 3.83 |
And using this nothing approach
just makes it often easier | 7,092.76 | 2.84 |
to take a look at this SCSS
page and really understand | 7,095.6 | 3.96 |
how all of the different style
code interacts with each other. | 7,099.56 | 3.83 |
So after all of this now,
if I open up nesting.html, | 7,103.39 | 5.2 |
we might see something that looks
a little something like this. | 7,108.59 | 3 |
The paragraph inside the div and
the list inside of the div, those | 7,111.59 | 3.72 |
both get changes to the way
that they've been styled. | 7,115.31 | 3.18 |
But unlike them, these
paragraphs outside of the div | 7,118.49 | 3.24 |
and the list that is
also outside of the div, | 7,121.73 | 2.13 |
those get styled a
little bit differently. | 7,123.86 | 3.43 |
So two features now we've
seen inside of Sass. | 7,127.29 | 2.45 |
We've first seen the
ability to have variables | 7,129.74 | 2.57 |
to make sure we're not
repeating ourselves | 7,132.31 | 1.75 |
in many places throughout the code. | 7,134.06 | 1.68 |
And now, we've seen the ability to
nest CSS selectors inside of each other | 7,135.74 | 4.62 |
by taking advantage of Sass. | 7,140.36 | 2.52 |
And finally, we'll take a
look at one last feature | 7,142.88 | 2.46 |
that Sass is going to give us. | 7,145.34 | 1.44 |
And that is something
called inheritance. | 7,146.78 | 2.28 |
If we have certain CSS selectors that
are related to other CSS selectors, | 7,149.06 | 4.65 |
but they're may be adding
some additional information. | 7,153.71 | 3.18 |
And in this case, I'm actually going
to show you the finished product first. | 7,156.89 | 3.46 |
So let's go into inheritance and
let me open up inheritance.html. | 7,160.35 | 5.75 |
And here, you see I've
tried to almost implement | 7,166.1 | 2.79 |
Bootstrap-style alert messages in HTML. | 7,168.89 | 3.48 |
I have a success message up at the
top, a warning message, and then | 7,172.37 | 2.91 |
an error message. | 7,175.28 | 1.2 |
And each of these messages you'll
notice are styled differently. | 7,176.48 | 2.88 |
In particular they're
each a different color. | 7,179.36 | 2.13 |
But despite that, they
share a lot in common. | 7,181.49 | 2.52 |
They share a common border. | 7,184.01 | 1.26 |
