Nesting Classes
Less gives you the ability to use nesting instead of, or in combination with cascading. Let's say we have the following CSS:
#header{
color: black;
}
#header .navigation{
font-size: 12px;
}
#header .logo{
width: 300px;
}
In Less, we can also write it this way:
#header{
color: black;
.navigation{
font-size: 12px;
}
.logo{
width: 300px;
}
}
The resulting code is more concise, and mimics the structure of your HTML.
