I have lately been learning some new CSS..SASS actually. SASS stands for Syntactically Awesome Style Sheets and is a way to make creating CSS more efficient and just to make creating CSS code better.
It is a programmatic way to code SASS and relies on the Ruby compiler. It is very interesting and I completed the Step by Step SASS course on Learnable and I need to go ahead and practice using SASS to get proficient with it.
Now back to CSS…I have just added a function to my WP theme to enqueue Font Awesome. This has a bunch of great css icons which can be custom styled as desired and opens up new design possibilities. I leave this example:
<span class="fa-stack fa-2x">
<i class="fa fa-circle fa-stack-1x icon-background1"> </i>
<i class="fa fa-check fa-stack-1x icon-background2"> </i>
</span>
which shows a nicely styled check mark on a circular background. I think it is neat!
I hope you like it too… Enjoy! 🙂
