CSS Sass Basics Write Smart and Efficient CSS with Sass Nesting Media Queries

Posted by Luciano Oyarzabal

Nesting Media queries outputs different CSS compared to nesting selectors.

So, when you nest a media querie.

.intro { @media (min-width: 992px) { width: 45&; } }

It outputs this on the CSS

@media (min-width: 992px) { . intro { width: 45%; } }

Why It doesn't outputs the code the same way like when you nest selectors? something like this:

intro @media () {

}

It's a ''special'' thing that SASS do only with the media queries or Im missing something?
