A task runner like Gulp would be useful for this kind of thing. This guy wrote an excellent introduction (and starter kit) [0] that covers automated SASS & Browserify code compilation and filesystem-browser synchronisation.
I've used Gulp for my last 2 major project for all my development and build needs. When a *.js file changes, it reads over my code and warns me (in the console) of any code style deviations or syntax errors, compiles it, tells the browser to reload it, and runs my unit tests, notifying me of any errors. When a *.scss file changes, it runs compass, concatenates, minifies, writes source maps, then tells the connected browsers to reload that particular resource. Using a system like this you could easily chuck in a CSS validation report on each change after the SCSS compilation but before the browser-prefixing. There's a plugin that reports back from the W3C service [1] which has been adapted to Gulp [2]. So much more convenient than asking a technical question on CSS-D and waiting for the reply back with the link to http://validator.w3.org/! ;) [0] http://viget.com/extend/gulp-browserify-starter-faq [1] https://www.npmjs.org/package/css-validator [2] https://www.npmjs.org/package/gulp-css-validator Regards, Barney Carroll barney.carr...@gmail.com +44 7429 177278 barneycarroll.com On 25 November 2014 at 15:50, MiB <digital.disc...@gmail.com> wrote: > > As I often feel inclined to use vendor-prefixes in order to meet business > requirements, my CSS typically don’t validate fully.
