Takana is a Sass/CSS live-editor. It lets you see your SCSS and CSS style changes live, in the browser, as you type them.
- Currently, Takana supports OSX, Linux and Sublime Text 2 & 3.
- Takana uses libsass under the hood, if you're using node-sass you'll be fine. However, if you're using the ruby compiler, you may need to refactor your code to get it running with libsass.
Install the takana
command to your system path:
$ npm install -g takana
Run takana by specifying the root of your project directory:
$ takana /path/to/project_folder
Now add the JavaScript snippit to any page you want to live update:
<script type="text/javascript" src="http://localhost:48626/takana.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript">
takanaClient.run({
host: 'localhost:48626' // optional, defaults to localhost:48626
});
</script>
Finally open the web page that you pasted the snippit into on the previous step. Then open one of its referenced stylesheets in Sublime and start live-editing!
We maintain a grunt plugin for easy integration with Takana. Head over to mechio/grunt-takana for instructions on getting started.
You can install your development folder with
$ npm install
Please adjust unit tests, if you change code. Run tests with:
$ npm test
