I rarely see frontend devs use pure SASS...why?

    For me, HAML and SASS are a pain to quickly read and understand. A lot of hierarchy is lost when you take out brackets and opening/closing tags.

      Interesting! I find brackets a visual annoyance, so when I discovered SASS it was a hallelujah moment. I do all my prototyping in SASS/HAML nowadays just because of the simplicity, even if I'm not designing for a Rails project.

      I felt that way in the beginning too, but after a while of forcing myself to stick with it, I now find it easier to read/scan original .sass than traditional css. It is cleaner and saves you a lot of typing.
