I've developed websites about two years but I've never used scss, sass, or less. What is the difference between them and advantages of using them?

    Duplicate is about Sass/.scss (and CSS) but not LESS so here it is: [LESS](http://lesscss.org) is another preprocessor with a different syntax. Also check [PostCSS](http://postcss.org) which used to be a postprocessor but is now both a pre- and postprocessor (compiles CSS to CSS - yep - and/or something close to CSS - or not, depends on the plugins you use - to CSS. Used transparently by the mighty Autoprefixer which you really _really_ should use for adding/removing vendor prefixes without human intervention thus no error :) – FelipeAls Oct 04 '16 at 09:11

CSS is the language for styling web pages.

LESS, SASS and SCSS are pre-processors that allow a few additional features. They output a .css file for the website to use.
