SCSS vs LESS: Which one should I choose?

What's the difference between SCSS and LESS?

SCSS and LESS are both CSS preprocessors that extend CSS with features like variables, nesting, and mixins. SCSS is a syntax of SASS, while LESS has its own syntax.

Which one is more popular among developers?

SCSS tends to be more popular due to its robust features and strong community support, but LESS is also widely used.

Can you give me an example of how variables work in both?

Sure! In SCSS, you define a variable like this: $primary-color: blue;. In LESS, it would be @primary-color: blue;. Both can then be used throughout your styles.

Are there any performance differences between them?

Generally, the performance differences are minimal and often depend on how you structure your code rather than the preprocessor itself.
