SimpLess - LESS (CSS) Compiler

Hi Everyone.

Anyone want to take on SimpLess? I do a lot web development lately, unfortunately not earning me money at the moment, but that's another story for another time.

Anyway, I just started learning how to use LESS and one of the tools needed is the free app called SimPless. I believe this will be useful for all those who is working on web development just as I am.

It's free, though I'm not sure if it's open-source.

The Website as well as the Download link is here:

Is Koala Go?

After much playing with it...I ran into another app that does the same thing but more. Koala App. But I noticed that someone working on it...so hoping that one gets a green light.

Koala:

Looking into it

I'm already looking into Koala, but have hit a possible game-breaker in that it includes some terribly long paths due to the multiple layers of dependencies it has packaged within it.

I haven't had a chance to look at it the past two weeks, but hopefully when I do get the chance to look at it again it will be as simple as moving the folder up a few levels before running the Installer on it. If that doesn't work I won't be able to release it.

Great to Know

That's awesome of you to take on that. Though, sorry to hear that it's giving you troubles. I've been using SimpLess (above) for now and just found out that it's open source as well (https://github.com/Paratron/SimpLESS).

Well I'll wait for your update on Koala and hope you get things ironed out. Though take your time, don't stress out on it. Smile

Moving up a few folders fixed

Moving up a few folders fixed the long path issues, so I'm uploading now.

Dev test should be posted shortly.
