Welcome to my Compass and Sass Video Tutorial. I’ll cover all of the following topics : Variables, Cross Browser Solutions, Installation, Partials, Normalization, Base Site Styling, Mixins, Functions, Nesting, Color Functions, Sharing Element Properties, Compass CSS3 Mixins, CSS3 Transforms, If, Else, For Loops, Spriting and more. All of the code from the video follows below. I hope this helps.
