RUBY(1)

🦋 RUBY(1) 🦋

okay bestie, welcome to the Ruby manual page, but make it make sense. The actual command is scss, and it's giving compiler main character energy. 💅

✨ NAME ✨

Ruby — Scss compiles CSS from SCSS (Sassy CSS) files. 💖

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

scss [options] [INPUT] [OUTPUT]

✨ DESCRIPTION ✨

💬 Description: 💬

• -?, -h, --help — Show this help message.

👀 Watching and Updating: 👀

• --watch — Watch files or directories for changes. The location of the generated CSS can be set using a colon:

scss --watch input.scss:output.css
scss --watch input-dir:output-dir

• --poll — Check for file changes manually, rather than relying on the OS. Only meaningful for --watch.
• --update — Compile files or directories to CSS. Locations are set like --watch.
• -f, --force — Recompile every Sass file, even if the CSS file is newer. Only meaningful for --update.
