Over the past few years I have taught training labs for web designers at Adobe MAX. This year (2019), I decided to go a bit deeper and introduce SASS in Bootstrap 4 to designers via Dreamweaver. Dreamweaver is geared up to be an all inclusive, one-stop web development application, but many of the more sophisticated features like SASS integration are a bit cloudy, so I created a video on how to install SASS. It is such a sexy, popular topic, I bet I’ll break YouTube.
Bootstrap 4 is great for rapid responsive web design and SASS is cool too. SASS comes integrated into Bootstrap but many designers forego the technical setup and stick to traditional CSS coding. Using Dreamweaver, which Adobe modernized a few years ago, is an easy way to slide into SASS development without having to use Node, gulp, terminal, CSS precompiling with external tools etc, etc. if you don’t want to. It is possible to get Dreamweaver setup to do all of this for you.
Get into SASS to unleash the fantastic power of all that Bootstrap has to offer including:
· Gradients, Shadows, Animation
· Responsive Font Sizing
· Variables, Mixins, etc.
· Create Themes
· Access special features of Bootstrap
