Bourbon is a lightweight, dependency-free library of Sass mixins and functions for writing stylesheets more efficiently. It was deprecated in September 2024 in favor of modern native CSS features.
Use cases
- write sass mixins for css prefixes
- lightweight sass utility library
- sass functions for stylesheet authoring
- replace vendor prefix boilerplate in scss
- sass toolset for rails projects
When to choose
- maintaining a legacy codebase that already uses Bourbon
- working in an environment locked to older Sass/LibSass versions
When to avoid
- starting a new project - it is deprecated and unmaintained
- modern browsers where native CSS features cover the same needs
