Why does Sass cache folder get created

sass

Solution

By default, Sass caches compiled templates and partials. This dramatically speeds up re-compilation of large collections of Sass files, and works best if the Sass templates are split up into separate files that are all @imported into one large file.

Without a framework, Sass puts the cached templates in the `.sass-cache` directory. In Rails and Merb, they go in `tmp/sass-cache`. The directory can be customized with the `:cache_location` option.

If you don’t want Sass to use caching at all, set the `:cache` option to `false`.

You can configure the Sass cache location by setting a Sass option in your compass configuration file like so:

sass_options = {:cache_location => "path\to\tmp\sass-cache"}
