Example
The following is a simple example of SASS.
<html>
<head>
<title> Import example of sass</title>
<pnk rel = "stylesheet" type = "text/css" href = "style.css"/>
</head>
<body>
<h1>Simple Example</h1>

</html>
Now, we will create file as style.scss, which is quite similar to CSS and the only one difference is that it will be saved with .scss extension. Both, .htm and .scss files should be created inside the folder ruby. You can save your .scss file in the folder rubypbsass (before this process, create a folder as sass in pb directory).
h1{
color: #AF80ED;
}
h3{
color: #DE5E85;
}
You can tell SASS to watch the file and update the CSS whenever SASS file changes, by using the following command −
sass --watch C: ubypbsassstyle.scss:style.css
When you run the above command, it will create the style.css file automatically. Whenever you change the SCSS file, the style.css file will be updated automatically.
The style.css file will have the following code when you run the above given command −
style.css
h1 {
color: #AF80ED;
}
h3 {
color: #DE5E85;
}
Let us carry out the following steps to see how the above given code works −
Save the above given code in hello.html file.
Open this HTML file in a browser.
