Eh, I don't know, Twitter bootstrap users don't appear to agree. I know it's fallen out of favor for DHH, but I don't know if that's generally true.

No idea, because I've never tried to do it, but the one I was referring to seems to make it pretty easy: http://sunlightfoundation.com/blog/2011/01/20/django-mediasync_2/ http://sunlightfoundation.com/blog/2011/01/20/django-mediasy...

I agree that it hasn't necessarily gone away in the larger sphere. Just that the Rails community has moved to a different default, so LESS gets harder to use. I personally am glad, though. I find SCSS more powerful. See, for example, the if statements and loops it gives you: http://sass-lang.com/docs/yardoc/file.SASS_REFERENCE.html#control_directives http://sass-lang.com/docs/yardoc/file.SASS_REFERENCE.html#co... For another example, around the time when Rails made the switch, I started running into serious problems using media queries with LESS, whereas they've always worked great for me in SCSS.
