Introduction

Make a TicTacToe HomeScreen in SCSS is, actually, a tutorial for you to comprehend all SCSS functions and variables by using them in a home screen design project, and therefore I choose to use a TicTacToe game template as the home screen. By following the given steps below, you could learn a few common features of SCSS in a basic level even if SCSS code structure is not familiar to you. TicTacToe template is designed in pure SCSS, but I merely implemented javascript code to make it more stylish by changing Xs to Os – it is explained below.

For more information about the code files, please visit Source Code section below.

SCSS code structure and variables in tictactoe.scss

SCSS is a CSS preprocessor that gives you a opportunity to use variables, functions math equations in creating a stylesheet for your project without needing any javascript code. Also, it is exceptional in altering all design – color, height, width and so on – with only a few line of code.

You can easily create a variable with a dollar sign in SCSS, and assign it a value such as #cccccc, 12px or 12px + 10px.

$template_height: 50%;

Also, you can create arrays and call it with map-get($arrayName, variable); function.

$colorDesign: (
body-color: #e6e6e6,
main-primary: #002699,
template: #cccccc);

map-get($colorDesign, body-color);

In a SCSS function(@function name {}), you can return(@return) whatever value you want with math operations, such as function justify that centers a div horizontally and vertically.

In SCSS, you are allowed to nest CSS selectors in a way that follows the same visual hierarchy of HTML.

CSS declarations groups are easy to create in SCSS because of mixins(@mixin) letting you to specify an element in a predefined situation by using @include method.

Compile tictactoe.scss to tictactoe.css

First of all, you need to activate SCSS features on your computer to execute tictactoe.scss file. I recommend you to download Sass (Syntactically Awesome Style Sheets) environment via Ruby for executing, but you can also use other options.

https://sass-lang.com/guide

Windows:

Download Ruby( https://rubyinstaller.org/ ).

Write gem install sass and press enter.

Linux:

You do not need to install Ruby, just go to your terminal and write $sudo gem install sass.

Now, you have to download a compiler – e.g. Gulp, Koala GUI – to compile SCSS to CSS through an extension. However, I suggest you to use WebStorm IDE having an embedded compiler in its features that ,simultaneously, compiles SCSS in a second.

Execute SCSS in index.html

After compilation, you now have a css file named tictactoe.css and all remaining process is to link tictactoe.css to index.html.

Rotating divs and clip-path background is ready to run, but if you want to change Xs to Os with a basic javascript function, you can add the following code – tictactoe.js.
