CSS

@import (inline) in Sass

Hello!

I was wondering is there an analog of @import (inline) in Sass?

In Less, it's possible to include the source file in the output but do not process it. Does Sass have similar feature?

Thank you!

If I'm right these are called "Partial" files in SASS.

To ouput a partial file but not process it I think you need to precede the filemame with an underscore. "_filname.scss"

When you are creating partials, you save them with an underscore as mentioned above!

a file name might look like ... _noramlize.scss

when importing them into your main.scss file, you need to provide the path, but not the '_' (SCSS will know what you're talking about).

@import "normalize";
@import "header";
@import "footer";

I love partials <3

Thank you for answers!

Sorry, my question was unclear. In Less, directive @import (inline) allows to concatenate .css and even min.css with .less files. In other words, we can import simple css. So, is it possible with us? (without using special plugins for concatenation)

hm, I don't think so, actually!
