Sass: 2020 And Beyond

on YouTube ↗43m

" summary

History and roadmap for Sass include concrete changes: libsass C++ created in 2012 powers many wrappers but is hard to maintain, dart-sass reference implementation (started 2017) carries new features like the module system with @use and @forward that replaces brittle import-once patterns, and color math plus unit handling. Performance note: native Dart is fastest, transpiled Dart-to-JS is several times slower than node-sass. Practical tip: replace "node-sass" with "sass" in package.json to get the newer features.
