SASS compile issues

Hello!

it seems that I cannot get default SASS functions to compile. For example, in the variables.scss file I do something like:

$theme: darken(#333635, 10%);

Docs: http://sass-lang.com/documentation/Sass/Script/Functions.html#darken-instance_method

There is no SASS errors in the console, but checking out the actual CSS on the browser:

background-color: darken(#333635, 10%);

This returns an invalid colour and hence doesn’t render.

Why we are labeling our css files scss and using the postcss-scss parser?

Because currently CSS code contains SCSS variables and, potentially, other stuff supported by precss. Having .scss extention ensures that this code will be properly highlighted in text editors and IDEs. Also it might be easier to switch from precss plugins + postcss-scss parser to a fully featured Sass loader if needed, though in this case your CSS code will be parsed twice - once by sass-loader and another time by postcss.

Ah, ok, cool!
