The mobile team is currently using lesscss [1] to maintain CSS. Without less things were quickly becoming messy.
Currently as part of the workflow a Makefile [2] is used to generate less files to css and both CSS and Less files need to be committed to the repository.
It would be awesome if less files could be added directly into ResourceLoader and ResourceLoader could do the compiling on my behalf.
It seems there is a php port [3] so this seems feasible. Thoughts?
