Sass for themes instead of Less

Jacob Moen

Seeing that Bootstrap 4 is based on Sass, I guess that you will be moving from Less to Sass for themes soon, right?

how quickly we become out of date

Likely this will happen, but when is a different story. I'd like to see both LESS and SASS supported, as then we can maintain compatibility with all existing plugins and themes.

Don't fret
Bootstrap 4 is not out yet - and it would be great to have support for both.

I am working on a theme that uses sass and bs4 right now. It's not too difficult to do.

I have it compiling my bs4 and theme sass to css, then in the theme's less files I @import the compiled css, the bs3 less variables, and bs3 less mixins.

Everything works as expected so far.

Let me know when you have something that I can look at.
I probably need to adjust a theme using Bootstrap 3.x sass, so a working example would be killer
