Description

Hi,

I'm a UX Designer who works with scss. I saw an earlier issue about possibly converting element to use scss instead of css alone, as the build process and theming for element is a little cumbersome at the moment.

Is there still interest in this? I might be willing to look at such a project, but want to make sure it is something others want still.

Element's default theme is written using PostCSS with a particular plugin called postcss-salad that is basically a "salad" of bunch of other parsers and plugins. One of those in particular is postcss-scss.

So, to answer your question, Element's theme is already written in SCSS. What you may be working with is the processed or compiled version of it, I'm assuming.

Actually we're working on a new theme using pure SCSS already.

I actually ended up porting the files, but it isn't a super sustainable solution, so that's great to hear. Thanks!
