How to convert Less to Scss?

Question

I have to use a converter, but it is very limited.

http://hallotheme.com/less2scss

Any idea how to convert from LESS to SCSS better?

Answer 1

The less2sass converter is pretty good and maintained https://www.npmjs.com/package/less2sass

Install it (you need https://nodejs.org/en/ on your system)

npm install -g less2sass

Once installed you can simply run

less2sass <path_to_less_file_or_directory>

Answer 2

this works okayish:

https://www.npmjs.com/package/less-scss-convertor

npm install -g less-scss-convertor
less-scss-convertor src\less

creates src\less\scss

Answer 3

This online option seems to work well. Paste in an entire file to convert it.

Answer 4

You could try using parts of Bootstraps's converter to create your own: https://github.com/twbs/bootstrap-sass/blob/master/tasks/converter/less_conversion.rb

However in most cases there will always be some cleanup you need to do manually.
