The Mind-blowing Power of Sass 3.3
summary
Demo shows an actual workflow: Source Maps in Chrome Canary with workspace mapping and live edits producing regenerated CSS, not just slides. Concrete language additions and helpers land: new string functions, a maps data structure with merge/get/iteration, and metascript tools like call and exists. Selector manipulation is implemented — an inject_parent mixin and at-root let code move parent selectors into SassScript. Variable scoping changes are announced and examples compile and run in the demo, though some features require prerelease builds.
