mess.js is an attempt to use less.js to
compile cascadenik-formatted styles.
it is inspired by but incompatible with
Cascadenik [1]. most importantly it deviates
by
1. Supporting JSON MML representations only
2. Implementing composition of styles instead
of overriding
mess.js is based on less.js [2], a CSS compiler
written by Alexis Sellier. It includes
underscore.js [3].
like less, mess.js provides a binary in bin/,
named mess, although it is designed primarily
for usage as a library.
usage:
messc map_file.json
