Less is a CSS preprocessor that extends CSS with features like variables, mixins, functions, and nesting. Since browsers only understand standard CSS, Less code must be compiled before it can be used on websites.
Less and SCSS are both CSS preprocessors with similar features. Less uses @ for variables while SCSS uses $. Less was originally JavaScript-based making it easier to run in browsers. Both compile to the same standard CSS output.
The compiler supports variables, mixins, nested rules, functions, operations, and imports. Most standard Less syntax works perfectly for browser-based compilation without needing a build tool.
