Description
The syntax of Crystal draws significant inspiration from Ruby, making it both intuitive to read and straightforward to write, which particularly benefits developers who are already familiar with Ruby due to a reduced learning curve. Additionally, Crystal employs static type-checking, ensuring that any type-related errors are identified early during compilation, thus preventing issues that could arise at runtime. To maintain simplicity and cleanliness within the language, it incorporates built-in type inference, meaning that developers often do not need to include explicit type annotations. In Crystal, all types are inherently non-nilable, and available variables are defined as a combination of the type and nil, allowing the compiler to perform checks for null references at compile time. Furthermore, Crystal features a robust macro system designed for metaprogramming, which encompasses a variety of functionalities, including basic templating, AST inspection, type inspection, and the capability to execute arbitrary external programs. This powerful macro system enhances the language's flexibility and allows for more dynamic code generation and manipulation.
Description
Less, short for Leaner Style Sheets, serves as a compatible extension to CSS, enhancing its capabilities without losing backward compatibility. This document serves as the authoritative guide for both Less and Less.js, the JavaScript utility that transforms Less styles into standard CSS. Since Less maintains a syntax similar to CSS, it is quite easy to pick up for newcomers. The language introduces only a handful of useful features to CSS, which contributes to its quick learning curve. One notable feature of Less is mixins, allowing users to incorporate a series of properties from one rule-set into another seamlessly. Additionally, Less enables the use of nesting, which can be utilized independently or in conjunction with traditional cascading styles. This flexibility allows developers to create more organized and maintainable stylesheets with ease.
