CSS Sass Basics Improve Your Workflow with Sass Write a Mixin

Challenge Task 4 of 4

Hello,

Can someone please help me answer that challenge question correctly.

style.scss
$btn-background: #dc143c;

/* Write your SCSS code below. */
@mixin button {
  font-size: 1.25em;
  background-color: $btn-background;
@content;
}

a {
  @include button {
    color: #fof8ff;
  }
}

The first time I did what you did. Now it makes sense, since the way we first did it isn't actually passing the value from the @mixin to the @include since we just added it afterwards.

The way you and I wrote it at first, would be for passing the color value to the button @content I think, but the challenge question wanted to pass the value to the button @include.

It should also be a '0' (number zero) for the color hexadecimal value.

$btn-background: #dc143c;

/* Write your SCSS code below. */

@mixin button {
  font-size: 1.25em;
  background-color: $btn-background;
  color: #f0f8ff;
  @content;

}

a {
  @include button
}
