css-transpiler

library1.0.16jsnpmunverified

A lightweight CLI tool that transpiles .scss files to .css in-place within the src directory. Version 1.0.16 is the latest stable release. It runs as a daemon watching for changes and automatically regenerates CSS. Unlike full-featured build tools like Webpack or Gulp, it operates as a simple CLI command with no JavaScript API or plugin system. Best used as a development dependency for straightforward SCSS compilation without build pipeline integration.

Debug

Known issues

gotchaThe package expects a 'src' directory at the project root. Files outside src/ are ignored.

fix

Ensure all .scss files are inside a src/ folder (or create it).

affects: >=1.0.0

gotchaThe transpiler overwrites .css files without warning. If you have custom .css edits, they will be lost.

fix

Keep custom .css files in a separate directory outside src/.

affects: >=1.0.0
