-# [Less.js v1.6.1](http://lesscss.org)
-
-> The **dynamic** stylesheet language. [http://lesscss.org](http://lesscss.org).
-
-This is the JavaScript, and now official, stable version of LESS.
-
-
-## Getting Started
-
-Options for adding Less.js to your project:
-
-* Install with [NPM](https://npmjs.org/): `npm install less`
-* [Download the latest release][download]
-* Clone the repo: `git clone git://github.com/less/less.js.git`
-
-
-
-## Feature Highlights
-LESS extends CSS with dynamic features such as:
-
-* [nesting](#nesting)
-* [variables](#variables)
-* [operations](#operations)
-* [mixins](#mixins)
-* [extend](#extend) (selector inheritance)
-
-To learn about the many other features Less.js has to offer please visit [http://lesscss.org](http://lesscss.org) and [the Less.js wiki][wiki]
-
-
-### Examples
-#### nesting
-Take advantage of nesting to make code more readable and maintainable. This:
-
-```less
-.nav > li > a {
- border: 1px solid #f5f5f5;
- &:hover {
- border-color: #ddd;
- }
-}
-```
-
-renders to:
-
-```css
-.nav > li > a {
- border: 1px solid #f5f5f5;
-}
-.nav > li > a:hover {
- border-color: #ddd;
-}
-```
-
-
-#### variables
-Updated commonly used values from a single location.
-
-```less
-// Variables ("inline" comments like this can be used)
- at link-color: #428bca; // appears as "sea blue"
-
-/* Or "block comments" that span
- multiple lines, like this */
-a {
- color: @link-color; // use the variable in styles
-}
-```
-
-Variables can also be used in `@import` statements, URLs, selector names, and more.
-
-
-
-#### operations
-Continuing with the same example above, we can use our variables even easier to maintain with _operations_, which enables the use of addition, subraction, multiplication and division in your styles:
-
-```less
-// Variables
- at link-color: #428bca;
- at link-color-hover: darken(@link-color, 10%);
-
-// Styles
-a {
- color: @link-color;
-}
-a:hover {
- color: @link-color-hover;
-}
-```
-renders to:
-
-```css
-a {
- color: #428bca;
-}
-a:hover {
- color: #3071a9;
-}
-```
-
-#### mixins
-##### "implicit" mixins
-Mixins enable you to apply the styles of one selector inside another selector like this:
-
-```less
-// Variables
- at link-color: #428bca;
-
-// Any "regular" class...
-.link {
- color: @link-color;
-}
-a {
- font-weight: bold;
- .link; // ...can be used as an "implicit" mixin
-}
-```
-
-renders to:
-
-```css
-.link {
- color: #428bca;
-}
-a {
- font-weight: bold;
- color: #428bca;
-}
-```
-
-So any selector can be an "implicit mixin". We'll show you a DRYer way to do this below.
-
-
-
-##### parametric mixins
-Mixins can also accept parameters:
-
-```less
-// Transition mixin
-.transition(@transition) {
- -webkit-transition: @transition;
- -moz-transition: @transition;
- -o-transition: @transition;
- transition: @transition;
-}
-```
-
-used like this:
-
-```less
-// Variables
- at link-color: #428bca;
- at link-color-hover: darken(@link-color, 10%);
-
-//Transition mixin would be anywhere here
-
-a {
- font-weight: bold;
- color: @link-color;
- .transition(color .2s ease-in-out);
- // Hover state
- &:hover {
- color: @link-color-hover;
- }
-}
-```
-
-renders to:
-
-```css
-a {
- font-weight: bold;
- color: #428bca;
- -webkit-transition: color 0.2s ease-in-out;
- -moz-transition: color 0.2s ease-in-out;
- -o-transition: color 0.2s ease-in-out;
- transition: color 0.2s ease-in-out;
-}
-a:hover {
- color: #3071a9;
-}
-```
-
-
-#### extend
-The `extend` feature can be thought of as the _inverse_ of mixins. It accomplishes the goal of "borrowing styles", but rather than copying all the rules of _Selector A_ over to _Selector B_, `extend` copies the name of the _inheriting selector_ (_Selector B_) over to the _extending selector_ (_Selector A_). So continuing with the example used for [mixins](#mixins) above, extend works like this:
-
-```less
-// Variables
- at link-color: #428bca;
-
-.link {
- color: @link-color;
-}
-a:extend(.link) {
- font-weight: bold;
-}
-// Can also be written as
-a {
- &:extend(.link);
- font-weight: bold;
-}
-```
-
-renders to:
-
-```css
-.link, a {
- color: #428bca;
-}
-a {
- font-weight: bold;
-}
-```
-
-## Usage
-
-### Compiling and Parsing
-Invoke the compiler from node:
-
-```javascript
-var less = require('less');
-
-less.render('.class { width: (1 + 1) }', function (e, css) {
- console.log(css);
-});
-```
-
-Outputs:
-
-```css
-.class {
- width: 2;
-}
-```
-
-You may also manually invoke the parser and compiler:
-
-```javascript
-var parser = new(less.Parser);
-
-parser.parse('.class { width: (1 + 1) }', function (err, tree) {
- if (err) { return console.error(err) }
- console.log(tree.toCSS());
-});
-```
-
-
-### Configuration
-You may also pass options to the compiler:
-
-```javascript
-var parser = new(less.Parser)({
- paths: ['.', './src/less'], // Specify search paths for @import directives
- filename: 'style.less' // Specify a filename, for better error messages
-});
-
-parser.parse('.class { width: (1 + 1) }', function (e, tree) {
- tree.toCSS({ compress: true }); // Minify CSS output
-});
-```
-

-
-## Contributing
-Please read [CONTRIBUTING.md](./CONTRIBUTING.md). Add unit tests for any new or changed functionality. Lint and test your code using [Grunt](http://gruntjs.com/).
-
-### Reporting Issues
-
-Before opening any issue, please search for existing issues and read the [Issue Guidelines](https://github.com/necolas/issue-guidelines), written by [Nicolas Gallagher](https://github.com/necolas/). After that if you find a bug or would like to make feature request, [please open a new issue][issues].
-
-Please report documentation issues in [the documentation project](https://github.com/less/less-docs).
-
-### Development
-
-#### Install Less.js
-
-Start by either [downloading this project][download] manually, or in the command line:
-
-```shell
-git clone https://github.com/less/less.js.git "less"
-```
-and then `cd less`.
-
-
-#### Install dependencies
-
-To install all the dependencies for less development, run:
-
-```shell
-npm install
-```
-
-If you haven't run grunt before, install grunt-cli globally so you can just run `grunt`
-
-```shell
-npm install grunt-cli -g
-```
-
-You should now be able to build Less.js, run tests, benchmarking, and other tasks listed in the Gruntfile.
-
-## Using Less.js Grunt
-
-Tests, benchmarking and building is done using Grunt `~0.4.1`. If you haven't used [Grunt](http://gruntjs.com/) before, be sure to check out the [Getting Started](http://gruntjs.com/getting-started) guide, as it explains how to install and use Grunt plugins, which are necessary for development with Less.js.
-
-The Less.js [Gruntfile](Gruntfile.js) is configured with the following "convenience tasks" :
-
-#### test - `grunt`
-Runs jshint, nodeunit and headless jasmine tests using [phantomjs](http://code.google.com/p/phantomjs/). You must have phantomjs installed for the jasmine tests to run.
-
-#### test - `grunt benchmark`
-Runs the benchmark suite.
-
-#### build for testing browser - 'grunt browser'
-This builds less.js and puts it in 'test/browser/less.js'
-
-#### build - `grunt stable | grunt beta | grunt alpha`
-Builds Less.js from from the `/lib/less` source files. This is done by the developer releasing a new release, do not do this if you are creating a pull request.
-
-#### readme - `grunt readme`
-Build the README file from [a template](build/README.md) to ensure that metadata is up-to-date and (more likely to be) correct.
-
-Please review the [Gruntfile](Gruntfile.js) to become acquainted with the other available tasks.
-
-**Please note** that if you have any issues installing dependencies or running any of the Gruntfile commands, please make sure to uninstall any previous versions, both in the local node_modules directory, and clear your global npm cache, and then try running `npm install` again. After that if you still have issues, please let us know about it so we can help.
