Sass @import

This lesson is part of SASS · All levels

Summary

Sass provides the @use and @import rules to break the stylesheet into several partial files. @use is recommended because it imports modules once and gives namespace to variables or mixes so that name conflicts can be avoided. @import is still functional but considered obsolete because the results accumulate to global scope.

Key points

@use to import a partial file as a module with namespace
The partial file name is initiated by the bottom line, for example _variables.scss
@import stacks all the contents of the file to global scope and is deprecated
One partial file is enough to be imported once even though many other files are used.
