Listers,
I was just reading a great article by Veerle Pieters ( here
<http://veerle.duoh.com/design/article/my_process_of_creating_the_arriva_web_site>
) which linked to another article ( here
<https://css-tricks.com/snippets/sass/mixin-manage-breakpoints/> ) that
made me stop and think about how I implement media queries and wondered if
it was a good or bad way of doing it or if it doesn't matter (other than
personal preference). This in turn moved me to post this to the list:
I use Sass for writing css. I have some base files like normalize, a fonts
scss file, a colors file etc. For the bulk of my styles, I break them up
based on breakpoint and import them into a main scss file, like so:
@import "colors";
@import "fonts";
@import "base";
@media only screen and (min-width: 40em){
@import "tablet";
}
@media only screen and (min-width: 60em){
@import "desktop";
}
The second article linked above is a neat Sass mixin to easily implement
MQs where needed, sort of "in-line" with your element's styles and having
your MQs all mixed into a single sheet, like:
.selector {
color: red;
}
@media (min-width: 767px) {
.selector {
color: blue;
}
}
My question is, is either of these methods more efficient/performant than
the other? My preferred method seems easier to keep organized (both in my
head and file-wise) but is it slower/less efficient?
TIA
