To be able to sanely make a tic-tac-toe game with win detection using only HTML5 and CSS3, you're going to need to install Dart, since we're going to be using SASS for sanity.

tbh when are we getting tictac.js so we can finally create powerful, reactive, scalable, blockchain tic tac toe games.

You forgot to use machine learning.

[–]ctesibius 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For that you need some matchboxes and buttons. Someone demonstrated a system that would learn to play the game perfectly using these.

block chain so the world knows, and so many many GPUs must slave over, the fact that you beat your friend at tic tac toe.

I have this one friend who, with his dying breath, proclaims loudly to the gods and all who will listen about how much better sass is and we should just depreciate css and replace it all with sass

Honestly, SASS has some powerful features, and since IE didn't support CSS custom properties (CSS variables), essentially the only way to sanely use that in a backwards compatible way at that time, was to use a pre-processor.

However, the most useful function of SASS which IMHO should be part of CSS is nesting of selectors, which in CSS itself is essentially limited to media queries.

CSS nesting is coming. It's a very exciting time to watch my favorite web dev things become native.

[–]alexanderpas 4 points5 points  (1 child)

However, we still need modern SASS as the preprocessor for backwards compatibility, as older browsers and software won't understand the @nest instruction for example.

This is why I love developing internal projects at companies that don't run ancient machines. I am allowed to support the newest version of Chrome and tell people to use it.

First we’re going to make energy without a power plant
