Can someone please tell me how to get syntax highlighting for .sass, please no .scss help. I have installed every plugin or Nuget package i could find, and they all say sass support. But they mean scss, i wish they did not have the same name, because this is driving me insane.

I can compile .sass just fine, just my file looks like a plain text file.

Lastly, am i crazy or does VS simple not allow you to create a .sass file? I know i can create another file and rename it to .sass, but that seams real real dumb.

Thanks for any help, ill get everyone i know to in the world to up vote your answer lol.

For anyone still looking for an answer. the only plugin that worked for me is SassyStudio it's free and generate css and minification as well.

.scss is the file extension sass is the name

Mindscape Web Workbench has a visual studio extension for it recommend by scott hanselman

or you could also look at sassy studio.

all the best

  • I think i explained i wanted .sass, not .scss. I think the syntax is much cleaner, i don't wan't something more like css, because regualar css sucks. – j_walker_dev Jan 20 '14 at 21:28
  • None of the mindscape tools work for .sass, thank you though. I am done with that .NET project, finally. – j_walker_dev Jan 20 '14 at 21:29
