Imagine the scene if you willit's 5 pm, late in the day, and your client wants the impossible
You know the sceneyou've created a kick-ass website, but the client isn't happy with the color of the buttons you've used on the site. They say the color shades used aren't quite there and need tweaking. A reasonable request, right? Except that there are dozens of buttons throughout the site, with most of them using different colorsOh heck no chance of an early finish then
Or, is there? There iswhat if we could change a handful of values and it automatically changes each button for you? Sounds crazy, right?
Wrong, it is absolutely possible. Welcome to the world of CSS preprocessors and Less! The power of Less means that we can set a couple of values that can be applied to any number of elements (such as buttons). Rather than having to change all of the buttons manually, we change the values and hit a button to recompile our code. Voil! The code is instantly updated, and the buttons show the new color.
