This lesson

This lesson teaches Comments—the ideas, syntax, and habits you need before moving on in Sass.

Without a solid grasp of Comments, you will repeat mistakes in Sass exercises and on real pages or scripts.

You will apply Comments in contexts like: Mature front-end codebases, design systems, and teams that compile SCSS in CI or locally.

Write SCSS, compile in the playground, inspect CSS output, and reinforce with lesson quizzes.

When the previous lesson's MCQs feel easy and you can explain Comments in your own words.

// line comments are stripped from output. /* */ may appear in compiled CSS.

Going deeper

In production Sass work, Comments matters when documents, stylesheets, or apps must stay maintainable across teams and releases—not only in isolated demos.

Common pitfalls

Watch for copy-paste configs, skipping validation or tests, and mixing concerns (structure vs presentation vs behavior) in one layer.

Practice

Apply one technique from this lesson in the playground.
Write one interview-style sentence explaining when you would use comments on a real project.

Playground

Runs in your browser in a sandboxed frame. Backend runners appear when this track’s profile allows them.
