I personally feel that CSS frameworks are a bad idea.

If you stick with regular CSS, you are using the lowest common denominator and will be 100% compatible with anyone, can go anywhere. With the framework, you are stuck in that system, have backed yourself into a corner.

With regular CSS, you can validate the code to the point where there are zero errors. With the framework, that may not be possible. There might typically be errors in the framework code itself. You can't change that code, you're stuck with it.

With regular CSS, anybody can look at your files and understand them. With the framework, only the limited group who understands that special framework can make sense of your files.

With regular CSS, you will become expert at CSS, and can apply that knowledge anywhere. With the framework as a crutch, you may never really learn CSS.

I'm sure there are advantages to using a framework. Maybe if you are doing something quick and dirty, it's a good idea. But for the long run I think you are better off with CSS, either as part of a web site template or something you write from scratch.

Plack::Middleware::File::Sass(3pm)			User Contributed Perl Documentation			Plack::Middleware::File::Sass(3pm)

NAME

       Plack::Middleware::File::Sass - Sass and SCSS support for all Plack frameworks

SYNOPSIS

	 use Plack::App::File;
	 use Plack::Builder;

	 builder {
	     mount "/stylesheets" => builder {
		 enable "File::Sass";
		 Plack::App::File->new(root => "./stylesheets");
	     };
	 };

	 # Or with Middleware::Static
	 enable "File::Sass", syntax => "scss";
	 enable "Static", path => qr/.css$/, root => "./static";

DESCRIPTION

       Plack::Middleware::File::Sass is a Plack middleware component that works with Plack::App::File or Plack::Middleware::Static to compile Sass
       <http://sass-lang.com/> templates into CSS stylesheet in every request.

       When a request comes in for .css file, this middleware changes the internal path to .sass or .scss, depending on the configuration, in the
       same directory. If the Sass template is found, a new CSS stylesheet is built on memory and served to the browsers.  Otherwise, it falls
       back to the original .css file in the directory.

       This middleware should be very handy for the development. While Sass to CSS rendering is reasonably fast, for the production environment
       you might want to precompile Sass templates to CSS files on disk and serves them with a real web server like nginx or lighttpd.

SASS BACKENDS

       If you have the sass gem version higher than 3 installed and have the "sass" executable available in your PATH, this module automatically
       uses the command to convert Sass or SCSS into CSS. If the command is not available and you have Text::Sass perl module available, it will
       be used. Otherwise you'll get an exception during the initialization of this middleware component.

OPTIONS

       syntax
	   Defines which syntax to use. Valid values are sass and scss. Defaults to sass.
