Sass vs. Future CSS

Type of Presentation

Variables might be the most obvious feature Sass introduced, and did it years before CSS did. Now, more and more features are being taken over from preprocessors into plain CSS. Because of this, will we even still need Sass?

Yes, of course!

I’ll show scenarios where it’s pragmatic to use future CSS features as soon as they’re available, and where to keep your Sass. We’ll also look at a potential complication: How Sass and future CSS will work together.

Speaker Info

I love Sass, have been having my love affair with it since the colon used to be on the left side of the attribute name. During the day, I work on large, maintainable code bases, style guides, and designing in the browser. Whenever I find a way to automize things, I try to create an open-source solution. It started with Lemonade/Compass Sprites, Sass Quotation-Marks, Git Routines, and the baby I spent most of my time on: the LivingStyleGuide Gem for Sass. Just recently, I put my experience on style guide APIs into an own Gem which is already in use to keep Eurucamp’s different applications in sync.

When my computer is actually off, I’m working with interior design, including my collection of vintage subway train parts and signage. I don’t own any part of the train shown on my photo though.

Hi Nico!

Thank you so much for submitting to SassConf this year!

Unfortunately, we weren’t able to select your talk.

We had an incredible number of submissions this year: 81, in fact, enough to fill up over two weeks of Sassy goodness! But we only have two days, and we couldn’t pick everything.

If you have any questions at all about our selection process, your submission, or anything else at all, please reach out: elyse@sassconf.com and I’ll gladly give you more details.

Again, thank you for submitting. It’s people like you, who are willing to put themselves out there and work hard and submit and give talks that make it possible to even have SassConf. I hope you will submit again next year and continue to be part of the Sass community!

See you in November!
