LESS on Espresso
Hi,
I'm using LESS with MacRabbit Espresso.
There isn't any code support for the nested classes ( ...{ ...{ ... } } ).
Can you help me with some sugar.less ? (I just published this message in the espresso forum too).
Thanks,
_ Mario

I think that the only canche is to create by myself a sugar for LESS: there isn't any LESS sugar for Espresso just developed with the nested classes management?

I'd like this too. Subscribing in case there's further news :)

I'd like too also ! LESS and Espresso would be the perfect match to design sites :)

Here is a start for those who want to use LESS with Espresso ;)
https://github.com/hawx/LESS.sugar
It really needs some development, I already start to use it, but it do not recognize nested rules. If somebody want to fork it ;)

With Espresso 2 there's no support to LESS.
There is the LESS discussion in the Espresso forum: http://wiki.macrabbit.com/forums/viewthread/973/#5452
For me this is the better LESS sugar (for now): https://github.com/cellfusion/LESS.sugar

I correct, the best cookie I've tried is this: https://github.com/mkoistinen/LESS.sugar

Paplop, why do you prefer the mkoistinen fork to cellfusion's?

I gave it a try and paplop. It is the more efficient sugar for now.
Cellfusion's sugar does not fully support CSS/LESS completion. Mkoistinen's one does :)
Thanks Paplop !

You're welcome Antoine ;-)
Brian, it's true: I tested all sugars and mkoinstinen was the best. However, it is absurd that MacRabbit doesn't support natively this widely used tool.
Espresso was a good candidate to became the best front-end dev friend but now, after 2 years of use I think that is only slightly more comfortable than TextMate without the great support of TextMate.
Unfortunately Espresso has proved a low-aptitude to the ruby-on-rails-world.
For now I switched to TextMate. A bit more inconvenient but with all dev support. Overall the best solution for front-end dev, for now.
