What is Sass

Sass is a CSS pre-processor.

Now you are ready to include Sass files in your project!

Create a Sass file

Create a Sass file the same way as you create CSS files, but Sass files have the file extension .scss

In Sass files you can use variables and other Sass functions:

$myColor: red;

h1 {
  color: $myColor;
}

Import the Sass file the same way as you imported a CSS file:

import React from 'react';
import ReactDOM from 'react-dom';
import './mysass.scss';

class MyHeader extends React.Component {
  render() {
    return (
      <div>
      <h1>Hello Style!</h1>
      <p>Add a little style!.</p>
      </div>
    );
  }
}

ReactDOM.render(<MyHeader />, document.getElementById('root'));
