Hello. I'm Jason Zimdars, a husband, dad and geek living in Edmond, OK. You probably know me as a web designer at 37signals. I write about design, UI, creativity, and sometimes toys.

I’m experimenting with SCSS for a new project — this small bit is the same showing it in both SCSS and CSS formats. The nesting is convenient and I’m sure it will eliminate lots of complex selectors, but the nesting comes at the expense of readability. I can only imagine how tough the indent levels will be to read when I’ve got enough inside div.sign-in that I’ll need to scroll to see it all. Verdict: pending.
