- 2. CSS Preprocessor
• Has anybody used CSS preprocessors?
• Did you ever wished for a variable in CSS?
• Do you like to write CSS faster?
- 5. Variables

$margin: 16px;
.content-navigation {
border-color: $blue;
color:
darken($blue, 9%);
}
.border {
padding: $margin / 2;
margin: $margin / 2;
border-color: $blue;
}
/* CSS */
.content-navigation {
border-color: #3bbfce;
color: #2b9eab;
}
.border {
padding: 8px;
margin: 8px;
border-color: #3bbfce;
}

table.hl {
margin: 2em 0;
td.ln {
text-align: right;
}
}
li {
font: {
family: serif;
weight: bold;
size: 1.2em;
}
}
/* CSS */
