What is Sass nesting and how do I use it?

Sass nesting allows you to nest your CSS selectors in a way that follows the same visual hierarchy of your HTML. This makes your stylesheets cleaner and more readable.

Can you show me an example of how to nest styles in Sass?

Sure! Here's a simple example:

nav {
  ul {
    list-style: none;
  }
  li {
    display: inline;
  }
}

This compiles to:

nav ul {
  list-style: none;
}
nav li {
  display: inline;
}

Are there any best practices for using nesting in Sass?

Yes! It's best to limit nesting to 3 levels deep to keep your styles manageable and avoid specificity issues.

What happens if I nest too deeply?

Nesting too deeply can lead to overly specific selectors, making your CSS harder to maintain and override.
