I'm trying to figure out why we need to double escape the ' in the string.

[basarat]

There is no double escaping, only single escaping.

The JS strings are equivalent : "ta ' da" == 'ta \' da', i.e there is just a quote, no \' (slash + quote) in that string.

The string we want to output is 'ta \' da'. In js that can be written as "'ta \\' da'".

If someone gives us the string 'hello' e.g. "'hello'" in js

We want to write '\'hello\'' in CSS. Hence that transform. Hope that helps :rose:

The 'ta \' da' example helped me understand what you were talking about. You are talking about quotes inside the quoted string. 👍
