Why LESS Hat? In August 2012, while we were developing and extending CSS Hat for LESS we needed universal mixins. Unfortunately, none of available were good enough that would satisfy our needs and that’s why we created new custom ones on our own, which have become the most popular mixin library for the whole LESS CSS.
After a year, there is a new, completely rewritten 3.0 version that brings 86 great mixins, robust workflow for editing, testing and creating new mixins.
Meet the best mixins library in the world. Thanks to the LESS Hat 3.0 is LESS CSS finally usable.
If you would like to use CSS Hat for working with LESS Hat and you still don't have one, we have a suprise for you at lesshat.com - Check it out!
.rounded or .shadow. It's stupid..keyframesThe structure of this repo is:
Typical LESS Hat mixin:
.supermixin(...) {
@process: ~`(function(){})()`;
-webkit-border-radius: @process;
border-radius: @process;
}
In @process variable is all magic. Please don't edit javascrpt directly in .less file. Instead use lesshat-devstack.
Use (almost) every property without interpolation!
Correct mixin calling:
.background-image(linear-gradient(to bottom, #fb83fa 0%,#e93cec 100%))
Incorrect calling:
.background-image(~'linear-gradient(to bottom, #fb83fa 0%,#e93cec 100%)')
Unfortunately, there are exceptions:
.keyframes(~'');
.calc(~'');
.selection(~'');
// in some cases you have to interpolate border-radius or LESS CSS begins to play on calculator
.border-radius(~'20px / 40px');

The CSS align-content property aligns a flex container's lines within the flex container when there is an extra space on the cross-axis. This property has no effect on the single line flexible boxes.
Resources: MDN, CSS-Tricks
Syntax:
Default value: stretch
.align-content(flex-start | flex-end | center | space-between | space-around | stretch)
Example:
div {
.align-content(flex-start);
}
// Result
div {
-webkit-align-content: flex-start;
-ms-flex-line-pack: start;
align-content: flex-start;
}
Summary:
The CSS align-items property aligns flex items of the current flex line the same way as justify-content but in the perpendicular direction.
Resources: MDN, CSS-Tricks
Syntax:
Default value: stretch
.align-items(flex-start | flex-end | center | baseline | stretch)
Example:
div {
.align-items(flex-start);
}
// Result
div {
-webkit-box-align: flex-start;
-moz-box-align: start;
-webkit-align-items: start;
-ms-flex-align: flex-start;
align-items: flex-start;
}
Summary:
The align-self CSS property aligns flex items of the current flex line overriding the align-items value. If any of the flex item's cross-axis margin is set to auto, then align-self is ignored.
Resources: MDN, CSS-Tricks
Syntax:
Default value: auto
.align-self(auto | flex-start | flex-end | center | baseline | stretch)
Example:
div {
.align-self(flex-start);

Shorthand to define a CSS animation, setting all parameters at once.
Resources: WebPlatform, CSS3files
Syntax:
Default value: none
.animation(animation-name | animation-duration | animation-timing-function | animation-delay | animation-iteration-count | animation-direction | animation-fill-mode , […]*)
Example:
div {
.animation(nameAnimation 2s linear alternate);
}
// Result
div {
-webkit-animation: nameAnimation 2s linear alternate;
-moz-animation: nameAnimation 2s linear alternate;
-opera-animation: nameAnimation 2s linear alternate;
animation: nameAnimation 2s linear alternate;
}
Summary:
Defines a length of time to elapse before an animation starts, allowing an animation to begin execution some time after it is applied.
Resources: WebPlatform, MDN
Syntax:
Default value: 0
.animation-delay(<time>, …)
Tips and tricks:
If you omit units after time argument, animation-delay is trying to be smart and add properly value.
if (time > 10) {
time += 'ms';
} else {
time += 's';
}
Example:
div {
.animation-delay(2, 200);
}
// Result
div {
-webkit-animation-delay: 2s, 200ms;

animation-direction: reverse, alternate;
}
Summary:
The animation-duration CSS property specifies the length of time that an animation should take to complete one cycle.
Resources: WebPlatform, MDN

time += 'ms';
} else {
time += 's';
}
Example:
div {
.animation-duration(2000);
}
// Result
div {
-webkit-animation-duration: 2000ms;
-moz-animation-duration: 2000ms;
-opera-animation-duration: 2000ms;
animation-duration: 2000ms;
}
Summary:
The animation-fill-mode CSS property specifies how a CSS animation should apply styles to its target before and after it is executing.
Resources: WebPlatform, MDN

Example:
div {
.animation-name(animation-1, animation-2);
}
// Result
div {
-webkit-animation-name: animation-1, animation-2;
-moz-animation-name: animation-1, animation-2;
-opera-animation-name: animation-1, animation-2;
animation-name: animation-1, animation-2;
}
Summary:

The CSS backface-visibility property determines whether or not the back face of the element is visible when facing the user. The back face of an element always is a transparent background, letting, when visible, a mirror image of the front face be displayed.
Resources: WebPlatform, MDN
Syntax:
Default value: none
.backface-visibility(visible | hidden )
Example:
div {
.backface-visibility(hidden);
}
// Result
div {

-o-backface-visibility: none;
-ms-backface-visibility: none;
backface-visibility: none;
}
Summary:
The background-clip CSS property specifies whether an element's background, either the color or image, extends underneath its border.
Resources: WebPlatform, MDN
Syntax:
Default value: border-box
.background-clip(<box>)
Example:
div {
.background-clip(padding-box);
}
// Result
div {
-webkit-background-clip: padding-box;
-moz-background-clip: padding-box;
background-clip: padding-box;
}
Summary:
With the background-image you can create prefixed linear or radial gradients. The CSS (linear|radial)-gradient() function creates an <image> which represents a linear|radial gradient of colors. The result of this function is an object of the CSS <gradient> data type. Like any other gradient, a CSS linear gradient is not a CSS <color> but an image with no intrinsic dimensions; that is, it has neither natural or preferred size, nor ratio. Its concrete size will match the one of the element it applies to.
Resources: WebPlatform, MDN
Syntax:
Default value: none
.background-image(<gradient>, ...)
Tips and tricks:
The background-image mixin is the most robust mixin of all.
It generates SVG for Internet Explorer 9, old webkit, moz and opera syntax.
Always use W3C syntax for the mixin. It can recalculate angle for older syntax, transform to top to bottom syntax and it can omit SVG syntax if it's impossible to express SVG e.g. when you call mixin with 55deg.
If you call mixin without arguments, LESS Hat does not generate anything.
Great online gradient generator.
Example:
div {
.background-image(linear-gradient(to bottom, #fb83fa 0%,#e93cec 100%));
}
// Result
div {
background-image: url(data:image/svg+xml;base64,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);

Summary:
The background-size CSS property specifies the size of the background images. The size of the image can be fully constrained or only partially in order to preserve its intrinsic ratio.
Resources: WebPlatform, MDN
Syntax:

}
// Result
div {
-webkit-background-size: cover, 100%;
-moz-background-size: cover, 100%;
background-size: cover, 100%;
}
Summary:
Applies a Gaussian blur to the input image. The value of ‘radius’ defines the value of the standard deviation to the Gaussian function, or how many pixels on the screen blend into each other, so a larger value will create more blur. If no parameter is provided, then a value 0 is used. The parameter is specified as a CSS length, but does not accept percentage values.
Resources: MDN
Syntax:
Default value: 0
.blur(length)
Tips and tricks:
If you omit units, blur adds px automatically.

Tips and tricks:
If you omit units, border-bottom-left-radius adds px automatically.
If you want to use syntax like 10px \ 5px, you have to interpolate argument ~'' or LESS CSS divides it (yeah awesome feature!).
Also LESS Hat adds background-clip: padding-box, because it fixes problem with older Safari. Here is some resource.
Example:
div {
.border-bottom-left-radius(10px);
}
// Result

The border-image CSS property allows drawing an image on the borders of elements. This makes drawing complex looking widgets much simpler than it has been and removes the need for nine boxes in some cases.
Resources: WebPlatform, MDN
Syntax:
Default value: based on individual properties
.border-image(border-image-source border-image-slice border-image-width border-image-outset border-image-repeat)

Example:
div {
.border-image(url(border.png) 61 45 62 54 repeat);
}
// Result
div {
-webkit-border-image: url(border.png) 61 45 62 54 repeat;

Summary:
Applies a linear multiplier to input image, making it appear more or less bright. A value of 0% will create an image that is completely black. A value of 100% leaves the input unchanged. Other values are linear multipliers on the effect. Values of an amount over 100% are allowed, providing brighter results. If the ‘amount’ parameter is missing, a value of 100% is used.
Resources: MDN
Syntax:
Default value: 0
.brightness(amount)
Example:
div {
.brightness(0.5);
}

-ms-filter: brightness(0.5);
filter: brightness(0.5);
}
Summary:
The calc() CSS function can be used anywhere a <length>, <frequency>, <angle>, <time>, <number>, or <integer> is required.With calc(), you can perform calculations to determine CSS property values.
THIS MIXIN MUST BE INTERPOLATED ~''
The -lh-property: 0 junk line of code is a neccesary sacrifice due to the hack nature of this set of mixins. (via less-properties)
Resources: MDN
Syntax:
.calc(<element>, ~'<expression>')
Example:
div {
.calc(width, ~'100% - 33px');
}
// Result
div {

Resources: WebPlatform, MDN
Syntax:
Default value: medium none black
.column-rule(<column-rule-width> | <column-rule-style> | <column-rule-color>)
Tips and tricks:
If you omit units, column-rule adds px automatically.
Example:

.column-rule(5 outset #ff00ff);
}
// Result
div {
-webkit-column-rule: 5px outset #ff00ff;
-moz-column-rule: 5px outset #ff00ff;
column-rule: 5px outset #ff00ff;

Summary:
The column-width CSS property suggests an optimal column width. This is not a absolute value but a mere hint. Browser will adjust the width of the column around that suggested value, allowing to achieve scalable designs that fit different screen size.
Resources: WebPlatform, MDN
Syntax:
Default value: auto
.column-width(<length> | auto)
Tips and tricks:
If you omit units, column-width adds px automatically.
Example:
div {
.column-width(100px);
}
// Result
div {
-webkit-column-width: 100px;
-moz-column-width: 100px;

}
Summary:
The columns CSS property is a shorthand property allowing to set both the column-width and the column-count properties at the same time.
Resources: WebPlatform, MDN
Syntax:
Default value: auto
.columns(<column-width> | <column-count>)
Tips and tricks:
If you omit units for column-width argument, columns adds px to it automatically.
Example:
div {
.columns(100 3);
}
// Result
div {
-webkit-columns: 100px 3;
-moz-columns: 100px 3;
columns: 100px 3;
}
Summary:
Adjusts the contrast of the input. A value of 0% will create an image that is completely black. A value of 100% leaves the input unchanged. Values of amount over 100% are allowed, providing results with less contrast. If the ‘amount’ parameter is missing, a value of 100% is used.
Resources: MDN
Syntax:
Default value: 100%
.contrast(<amount>)
Tips and tricks:
If you omit units, contrast adds % automatically.
Example:
div {
.contrast(200);
}
// Result
div {
-webkit-filter: contrast(200%);
-moz-filter: contrast(200%);
-ms-filter: contrast(200%);
filter: contrast(200%);
}
Summary:
The display CSS property specifies the type of rendering box used for an element. This mixin is specifically for flexbox purpose.
Resources: CSS-Tricks
Syntax:
.display(<flex> | <inline-flex>)
Example:

// Result
div {
display: -webkit-box;
display: -ms-flexbox;
display: -webkit-flex;
display: -moz-box;
}

Summary:
The @keyframes CSS at-rule lets authors control the intermediate steps in a CSS animation sequence by establishing keyframes (or waypoints) along the animation sequence that must be reached by certain points during the animation.
LESS CSS isn't great for complicated mixin like this one, so it's little bit tricky. LESS CSS compiler doesn't allow to have properties in the root. It's better to understand the problem on the example.
// There is no selector
color: red;
SyntaxError: properties must be inside selector blocks, they cannot be in the root.
div { color: red; } // This is correct
Therefore LESS Hat generates placeholder selector lesshat-selector { -lh-property: 0; } with unknown property, which browsers ignore and after that, there is actually keyframes syntax.
And also because of bad architecture of LESS CSS language, keyframes definition has to be on single line.
THIS MIXIN MUST BE INTERPOLATED ~''
Resources: WebPlatform, MDN
Syntax:
.keyframes(~'<keyframes-name>, <keyframes-definition>')
Tips and tricks:
Properties inside <keyframes-definition> are automatically prefixed, if it's needed.
Keyframes mixin supports prefix configuration but it's computationally demanding so it is commented out and all prefixes are rendered. Feel free to uncommented that if you need it.
Example:
.keyframes(~'animationName, 0%{ transform: scale(1.5); color: blue; } 100%{ transform: scale(2); color: red }');
// Result
lesshat-selector {-lh-property: 0; }
@-webkit-keyframes animationName{ 0%{ -webkit-transform: scale(1.5); color: blue; } 100%{ -webkit-transform: scale(2); color: red }}
@-moz-keyframes animationName{ 0%{ -moz-transform: scale(1.5); color: blue; } 100%{ -moz-transform: scale(2); color: red }}
@-o-keyframes animationName{ 0%{ -o-transform: scale(1.5); color: blue; } 100%{ -o-transform: scale(2); color: red }}
@keyframes animationName{ 0%{ transform: scale(1.5); color: blue; } 100%{ transform: scale(2); color: red };}

Summary:
The CSS transition property is a shorthand property for transition-property, transition-duration, transition-timing-function, and transition-delay. It allows to define the transition between two states of an element.
Resources: WebPlatform, MDN
Syntax:
Default value: all 0 ease 0
.transition([ none | <single-transition-property> ] | <time> | <timing-function> | <time>)
Tips and tricks:
If you omit units after time argument, transition is trying to be smart and add properly value.
if (time > 10) {
time += 'ms';
} else {
time += 's';
}
And also properties inside transition definition are automatically prefixed, if it is needed.
W3C property value is appending all prefixed values.
Why? Some browsers support W3C unprefixed properties, but values must be sometimes prefixed.
Let's consider this example:
div {
-webkit-transition: -webkit-filter .3s ease;
-moz-transition: -moz-filter .3s ease;
-o-transition: filter .3s ease;
// There is a problem! Webkit needs -webkit-filter property
transition: filter .3s ease;
}
Example:
div {
.transition(box-shadow 0.2s linear, color .4s .2s ease);
}
// Result
div {
-webkit-transition: -webkit-box-shadow 0.2s linear, color 0.4s 0.2s ease;
-moz-transition: -moz-box-shadow 0.2s linear, color 0.4s 0.2s ease;
-o-transition: box-shadow 0.2s linear, color 0.4s 0.2s ease;
transition: box-shadow 0.2s linear, color 0.4s 0.2s ease;
}
Summary:
The transition-delay CSS property specifies the amount of time to wait between a change being requested to a property that is to be transitioned and the start of the transition effect.
Resources: WebPlatform, MDN
Syntax:
Default value: 0
.transition-delay(<time>)
Tips and tricks:
If you omit units after time argument, transition-delay is trying to be smart and add properly value.
if (time > 10) {
time += 'ms';
} else {
time += 's';
}
Example:
div {
.transition-delay(200);
}
// Result
div {
-webkit-transition-delay: 200ms;
-moz-transition-delay: 200ms;
-o-transition-delay: 200ms;
transition-delay: 200ms;
}
Summary:
The transition-duration CSS property specifies the number of seconds or milliseconds a transition animation should take to complete. By default, the value is 0s, meaning that no animation will occur.
Resources: WebPlatform, MDN
Syntax:
Default value: 0
.transition-duration(<time>)
Tips and tricks:
If you omit units after time argument, transition-duration is trying to be smart and add properly value.
if (time > 10) {
time += 'ms';
} else {
time += 's';
}
Example:
div {
.transition-duration(6);
}
// Result
div {
-webkit-transition-duration: 6s;
-moz-transition-duration: 6s;
-o-transition-duration: 6s;
transition-duration: 6s;
}
Summary:
The transition-property CSS property is used to specify the names of CSS properties to which a transition effect should be applied.
Resources: WebPlatform, MDN
Syntax:
Default value: all
.transition-property(<propertyname> | all | none)
Tips and tricks:
And also properties inside transition-property definition are automatically prefixed, if it is needed.
W3C property value is appending all prefixed values.
Why? Some browsers support W3C unprefixed properties, but values must be sometimes prefixed.
Let's consider this example:
div {
-webkit-transition: -webkit-filter .3s ease;
-moz-transition: -moz-filter .3s ease;
-o-transition: filter .3s ease;
// There is a problem! Webkit needs -webkit-filter property
transition: filter .3s ease;
}
Example:
div {
.transition-property(transform);
}
// Result
div {
-webkit-transition-property: -webkit-transform;
-moz-transition-property: -moz-transform;
-o-transition-property: -o-transform;
transition-property: -webkit-transform,-moz-transform,-o-transform,transform;
}
Summary:
The CSS transition-timing-function property is used to describe how the intermediate values of the CSS properties being affected by a transition effect are calculated. This in essence lets you establish an acceleration curve, so that the speed of the transition can vary over its duration.
Resources: WebPlatform, MDN
Syntax:
Default value: ease
.transition-timing-function(<timing-function>, ...)
Example:
div {
.transition-timing-function(cubic-bezier(0,0,1,1), ease);
}
// Result
div {
-webkit-transition-timing-function: cubic-bezier(0, 0, 1, 1), ease;
-moz-transition-timing-function: cubic-bezier(0, 0, 1, 1), ease;
-o-transition-timing-function: cubic-bezier(0, 0, 1, 1), ease;
transition-timing-function: cubic-bezier(0, 0, 1, 1), ease;
}
Summary:
Specifies a 2D translation by the vector [tx, ty]. If ty isn't specified, its value is assumed to be zero.
Resources: MDN
Syntax:
Default value: 0
.translate(<tx>[, <ty>])
Tips and tricks:
If you omit units, translate adds px automatically.
Example:
div {
.translate(200);
}
// Result
div {
-webkit-transform: translate(200px);
-moz-transform: translate(200px);
-o-transform: translate(200px);
transform: translate(200px);
}
Summary:
The translate3d() CSS function moves the position of the element in the 3D space.
Resources: MDN
Syntax:
Default value: 0
.translate3d(<tx>, <ty>, <tz>)
Tips and tricks:
If you omit units, translate3d adds px automatically.
Example:
div {
.translate3d(20, 30, 10);
}
// Result
div {
-webkit-transform: translate3d(20px, 30px, 10px);
-moz-transform: translate3d(20px, 30px, 10px);
-o-transform: translate3d(20px, 30px, 10px);
transform: translate3d(20px, 30px, 10px);
}
Summary:
Translates the element by the given amount along the X axis.
Resources: MDN
Syntax:
Default value: 0
.translateX(<tx>)
Tips and tricks:
If you omit units, translateX adds px automatically.
Example:
div {
.translateX(20);
}
// Result
div {
-webkit-transform: translateX(20px);
-moz-transform: translateX(20px);
-o-transform: translateX(20px);
transform: translateX(20px);
}
Summary:
Translates the element by the given amount along the Y axis.
Resources: MDN
Syntax:
Default value: 0
.translateY(<ty>)
Tips and tricks:
If you omit units, translateY adds px automatically.
Example:
div {
.translateY(20);
}
// Result
div {
-webkit-transform: translateY(20px);
-moz-transform: translateY(20px);
-o-transform: translateY(20px);
transform: translateY(20px);
}
Summary:
Translates the element by the given amount along the Z axis.
Resources: MDN
Syntax:
Default value: 0
.translateZ(<ty>)
Tips and tricks:
If you omit units, translateZ adds px automatically.
Example:
div {
.translateZ(20);
}
// Result
div {
-webkit-transform: translateZ(20px);
-moz-transform: translateZ(20px);
-o-transform: translateZ(20px);
transform: translateZ(20px);
}
Summary:
Controls the appearance (only) of selection.
Resources: MDN
Syntax:
Default value: auto
.user-select(none | text | all | element)
Example:
div {
.user-select(none);
}
// Result
div {
-webkit-user-select: none;
-moz-user-select: none;
