Resources for Theme Designers: 20 Free CSS3 Tools & Generators
This is the second part of our “Resources for WordPress Theme Designers” series, last time out we looked at Free Font Icons. This time I am going to be looking at tools to help with your CSS development. With the introduction of CSS3 things got a little more complicated and much more powerfull for web designers and there is a whole load of new tools to make your life easier and help you get to all the new features.

Modernizr
Modernizr is a JavaScript library that detects HTML5 and CSS3 features in the user’s browser.
SASS
Sass makes CSS fun again. Sass is an extension of CSS3, adding nested rules, variables, mixins, selector inheritance, and more. It’s translated to well-formatted, standard CSS using the command line tool or a web-framework plugin.
LESS
LESS extends CSS with dynamic behavior such as variables, mixins, operations and functions. LESS runs on both the client-side (Chrome, Safari, Firefox) and server-side, with Node.js and Rhino.
