This example shows how to define a reusable gradient mixin in SCSS that generates CSS3 gradients with cross-browser support. The mixin takes two color arguments and outputs background-color as a fallback, followed by gradient declarations for Mozilla, WebKit, Opera, and the standard syntax. The code uses the `@mixin` and `@include` directives from Sass, applying the mixin to a `.my_div` class with a `$background_color` variable and white. It does not include any data source or rendering logic, only the styling approach for gradients.

This example demonstrates a color theme system generated entirely through Sass, where a single mixin applies background colors to a sequence of five span elements. The output shows how nested loops and list indexing produce a gradient effect, with each span receiving a progressively darker background from #555 to #111. Using Sass v3.4.1 and Compass v1.0.1, the code leverages the `@for` directive and the `nth()` function to iterate through predefined color and background lists. The rendering is purely CSS-based, with no JavaScript libraries or data sources involved.

This example demonstrates how Sass preprocessing turns SCSS source code into standard CSS, using the SassMeister.com web tool. The input SCSS defines a `solidblock` mixin that mixes a background color with white at 40%, then applies it to `.block` and `.block-blue` classes, resulting in rendered HTML blocks with gray and white backgrounds. The snippet also shows nested selectors with a hover pseudo-class and a `$primary-color` variable. The CSS output and rendered HTML are displayed alongside the original SCSS and HTML files, illustrating the compilation pipeline from gist-embedded input to final styled output.

SCSS cheat sheet

This example presents a SCSS cheat sheet as a source-code reference, showing syntax for imports, variables, nesting, mixins, and media queries. The code includes predefined color variables like `$dmn-blue`, uses `lighten()` to adjust shades, and demonstrates `@mixin` definitions for reusable styles such as `body-copy-style` and `rounded`. It also illustrates selector nesting with the `&:hover` parent reference and responsive design via `@media` rules keyed to width variables. The gist by LayneSmith serves as the data source, rendered directly as formatted code.

This example demonstrates how Sass’s `@for` loop and `nth()` function generate five distinct theme classes, each pairing a color from one list with a background from another. The code defines a `theme` mixin that applies the color and background properties, then iterates through two parallel lists to produce CSS rules like `#theme-1` through `#theme-5`. The output shows the resulting styles, where the color and background values swap symmetrically, creating a reverse-gradient effect. Sass v3.4.1 and Compass v1.0.1 are used to compile the SCSS into plain CSS.

Conic Gradient

This example demonstrates a conic gradient rendered as a full-page background using pure CSS. The body element fills the viewport with a conic-gradient that transitions from gold to red, creating a smooth circular color wheel effect. The code uses the CSS `conic-gradient()` function within a simple HTML structure, with no JavaScript or external libraries. It draws directly from MDN’s documentation on CSS gradients, showcasing a minimal approach to generating complex color transitions without canvas or SVG.

This example demonstrates the visual output of Sass preprocessing on a simple stylesheet, showing how Sass functions transform color values for anchor elements. The code uses Sass v3.4.3 and Compass v1.0.1, applying mixins, color functions like `lighten`, `darken`, `complement`, `desaturate`, and `mix`, and nested selector syntax with `&:hover`. The resulting CSS output reveals the computed hex values, such as `#ff6666` for lightened red and `cyan` for the complement, illustrating how Sass’s built-in color manipulation and nesting rules compile into plain CSS.

CSS3 dots patterns

This example demonstrates a purely CSS-based technique for generating dot patterns without any images or JavaScript. It uses two stacked `linear-gradient` functions to create a repeating grid of dots: one gradient controls the vertical fading of each dot, while the other defines the horizontal spacing and color opacity. The pattern is applied via `background-image` with a `background-size` of `.25em`, producing a seamless tiled texture. A second CSS file shows how to apply a simple red color style, though the core visualization relies entirely on CSS3 gradients and no external libraries or data sources.
