Less 4: Getting Started
|
Developers might not like CSS, but there is a way to make it work more like code. With this simple toolkit, you can use programmatic structures like variables, reusable classes, and computation to make your CSS even better.
Less can help you simplify your CSS and add programming-like constructs to CSS with very little effort required. In this course, Less: Getting Started, you will learn foundational knowledge and gain the ability to show you how to use and write extensions to Less. First, you will learn how to use Less with almost any back-end technology. Next, you will discover how to refactor your CSS into Less. Finally, you will explore how to use nested rules, functions, and variables in your CSS. When you’re finished with this course, you will have the skills and knowledge to implement Less in your own projects.
