What is NativeSass?

NativeSass is a React Native library that allows you to use powerful features of Sass and CSS, but combining the structured approach of them with React Native's own styling paradigm. It aims to maintain the React Native way of styling components while integrating powerful, familiar features from Sass and CSS.

NativeSass enhances the styling process and productivity by introducing nesting, shared styles, advanced shorthand properties, and much more. It allows developers to write expressive and maintainable styles while adhering to React Native's core principles.

NativeSass is compatible with both the Expo CLI and React Native CLI, providing flexibility for developers across a variety of project setups. For new projects, we recommend using the Expo CLI, as it simplifies the development process by abstracting much of the configuration typically required when using the React Native CLI. This approach aligns with the guidance provided in the official React Native documentation, which suggests starting with a framework like Expo for ease of use and faster setup.
