sass:tldr:d2942
This command is used to run the Sass compiler in "watch" mode for a specific file or directory.
The sass
command is the command line interface (CLI) for Sass, a popular preprocessor for CSS.
The --watch
flag is used to tell Sass to continually watch for changes in the specified file or directory. This means that whenever there is a change in the file(s), Sass will automatically recompile the Sass code to CSS.
${select}
is a placeholder or variable in this context. You would replace ${select}
with the actual file or directory path that you want Sass to watch for changes. For example, if you want Sass to watch a file named styles.scss
, you would replace ${select}
with styles.scss
.
Therefore, when you run the command sass --watch ${select}
in the command line, Sass will watch for changes in the specified file or directory and recompile it to CSS whenever changes are detected.
