# Sass Rules

### File structure <a href="#file-structure" id="file-structure"></a>

* Categorized styles; making them easier to maintain
* 5-1 Pattern architecture; for clearer organization (based on the [7-1 Pattern](https://github.com/HugoGiraudel/sass-boilerplate))
* Clear delineation between grouped and associated rules
* Encourages common style, components and variable (inline with [Atomic Design](http://bradfrost.com/blog/post/atomic-web-design/))
* Modular style management that facilitates [Styleguide Driven Development](http://webuild.envato.com/blog/styleguide-driven-development/)
* Reusable approach

`styles.scss                        # Main Scss File

```

### Styles.scss <a href="#stylesscss" id="stylesscss"></a>

* Charset should be included
* Only directory files `-dir.scss` files should be imported
* Changes should not be made to this file
* Filename is always ‘styles’ as it is a compiled file containing multiple stylesheets
* All files except /styles.scss require an underscore at the beginning of each filename

```scss
@charset 'utf-8';

//Vendor
@import "vendor/__vendor";

//Base Styles
@import "base/__base";

//Components
@import "components/__components";

//Layout
@import "layouts/__layouts";
```

### Use abstract folder

abstract folder contains functions, mixins, variables or other things that can be used repeatedly

this is how to use it

```scss
@use "../abstract/mixins";

.Footer {
  @include mixins.display(flex);
  @include mixins.justify-content(space-between);
}
```
