Author

This process can be used to parse and process Leaner CSS (LESS) files.

It can parse LESS template files and process it by reading and replacing variable values, insert mixins in class declarations that use them, evaluating operations and expand nested definitions into CSS classes.

The processed CSS is returned as a string.
