  • Awesome SCSS editor

  • Perfect SCSS editor inside WordPress

    I do think this is the best one in the WordPress plugin repository. You don't even need to have a separate scss file. You can just write in the editor and let the magic happen!! Anyone who writes custom scss or even css along with WordPress, try this.
