SCSS (Sassy CSS) is a superset of CSS with more quality of life language features such as:

  • Variables.
  • Nested rules.
  • Mixins.
  • Modules.
  • Partials.

SCSS is transpiled into CSS that the browser can interpret by a preprocessor.

SCSS vs. Sass: They’re actually two different syntaxes. SCSS is the newer syntax, while Sass is an older syntax that uses Python-like indentation: SCSS is more commonly used.
