# Jun 27th 2017, 10:59 neon1024 Seems interesting @dakota https://yarnpkg.com/lang/en/
# Jun 27th 2017, 10:44 cleptric I just need it during compling to css
# Jun 27th 2017, 10:43 neon1024 Ah right, okay
# Jun 27th 2017, 10:43 neon1024 Yes, seems it does. http://sass-lang.com/documentation/file.SASS_REFERENCE.html#import
# Jun 27th 2017, 10:43 cleptric Which sucks :)
# Jun 27th 2017, 10:43 cleptric Yes, I found import, but that copies the whole content to my app sass file
# Jun 27th 2017, 10:43 neon1024 @cleptric No idea actually. You can certainly import partials and mixins easily. I’m just not sure if you can specify a path.
# Jun 27th 2017, 10:42 cleptric @neon1024 regarding saas: `@import (reference) "../../vendors/bower_components/bootstrap/less/mixins.less";` Can you do sth like this? We’ll switch to saas when Bootstratp 4 comes out, so i just looked into less so far
# Jun 27th 2017, 10:41 cleptric just for this small tasks
# Jun 27th 2017, 10:41 cleptric Now, my node_modules folder is 100 MB
# Jun 27th 2017, 10:39 cleptric I use it to install grunt and a js code sniffer
# Jun 27th 2017, 10:39 cleptric I have mixed feelings about npm anyways
# Jun 27th 2017, 10:39 dakota but yarn is
# Jun 27th 2017, 10:38 cleptric But npm isn’t faster than bower
# Jun 27th 2017, 10:38 dakota exactly :)
# Jun 27th 2017, 10:38 cleptric Because it’s faster
# Jun 27th 2017, 10:38 neon1024 @cleptric A horse and cart works, so why drive a car? ;)
# Jun 27th 2017, 10:38 dakota yarn is the way of the future :)
# Jun 27th 2017, 10:37 cleptric It works, so why should I chnage it?
# Jun 27th 2017, 10:37 dereuromark me too
# Jun 27th 2017, 10:37 cleptric I used bower
# Jun 27th 2017, 10:37 neon1024 It did always seems a bit odd to use a package manager to install a package manager.
# Jun 27th 2017, 10:34 spriz NPM all the things
# Jun 27th 2017, 10:34 spriz To me Bower is dead :P
# Jun 27th 2017, 10:34 spriz I do not see any reason to use bower anymore :thinking_face: anyone can fill me in?
# Jun 27th 2017, 10:25 maymeow im still using bootstrap 3 (for now)
# Jun 27th 2017, 10:25 birdy247 bootstrap 4 is sass
# Jun 27th 2017, 10:23 maymeow yes
# Jun 27th 2017, 10:23 neon1024 I think Twitter Bootstrap is built using Less though
# Jun 27th 2017, 10:23 neon1024 I found Less first, as I read about Compass, which was the front-end framework built on Less
# Jun 27th 2017, 10:22 neon1024 #badanalogies
# Jun 27th 2017, 10:22 neon1024 They’re like flavours of ice cream. They’re all a bit different, but they’re all ice cream at the end of the day :P
# Jun 27th 2017, 10:22 neon1024 The Sass gem can convert Less into Sass if I recall
# Jun 27th 2017, 10:21 neon1024 As you have sass vs scss too
# Jun 27th 2017, 10:21 neon1024 Same difference *really*
# Jun 27th 2017, 10:21 maymeow Sass vs Less? I have tried only Less mainly because i have installed nodeJS on my pc...
# Jun 27th 2017, 10:19 neon1024 We went with the Sass gem mostly because we all use Mac OS which comes with Ruby, so it’s easier for the design team :slightly_smiling_face:
# Jun 27th 2017, 10:19 neon1024 Saves you having to have both NodeJS and Ruby in your development environment
# Jun 27th 2017, 10:19 neon1024 So you might want to find a NodeJS package to build your Sass
# Jun 27th 2017, 10:18 neon1024 If you’re going to use Bower, then you’ll need NPM, which means you need NodeJS
# Jun 27th 2017, 10:18 neon1024 At least, that’s my very limited understanding of it’s purpose
