@at-root (with: media) - Sass

Hi, 

.is-displayed-mobile {

  @include mq(small) {
    display: block;

    @at-root (with: media) {
      .is-hidden-mobile {
        display: none;
      }
    }

  }

  @include mq(medium) {
    display: none;
  } 

}

If you look at that, it's all ok but..

@at-root(with: media)

What does that do? I either missed it in the video, Modular Sass somewhere, or i don't get it.

Plus I don't want to watch treehouse vidoes today, since I have lack of :zap: motivaiton :zap: for today, so id just do my project, and look for tips fomr the videos :)

If someone could point me in a right direction pelase

Hi James,

The @at-root directive in SASS will move nested styles out from within a parent selector. I found this great article that provides more detailed examples of the use of @at-root. http://sassbreak.com/getting-back-to-our-roots/
