Very detailed documentation and a very active community and easy to find help or previous examples Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Uses @ to declare variables, but in CSS, @ already has meaning (it's used to declare @media queries and @keyframes) which can cause confusion Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"My Review for Less"
What do you like best about Less?

The open source language and the similarity to others like SCSS. It's easy to learn and it's so easy to add to our projects. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Less?

It's similar to SCSS and the less changes to this language. I think that it need more diferences between this to improve. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Without issues"
What do you like best about Less?

Its ease of use, but my preferred feature is to be able to order CSS (just as with SASS). Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Less?

SASS is more widely used causing LESS to be `less` used. In general, is somewhat similar to SASS. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Great tool for increasing productivity when writing lots CSS"
What do you like best about Less?

Less is a great tool wether you write a lot of CSS in one project or when you are trying to share the css codebase between many projects.

It makes development faster.

It's easy to read and understand

Forces developers to write code readable. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Less?

You need to learn new technology, which is "not essential" - meaning, that CSS is good and LESS is just a syntactic sugar.

Need to involve preprocessors in the building process. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I love that you can declare global variables in the .less file. This reduces your amount of code, which we all know, reduces the number of code errors. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Sometimes it is a hassle to install the compiler unless you use something like Visual Studios that offers it as a plugin. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
