Foundation Sass Install App.css error

Question

Followed the instructions to download the sass Foundation version. (http://foundation.zurb.com/docs/sass.html)

I keep getting the following error in app.css

Syntax error: File to import not found or unreadable: foundation/_functions.
Load path: /Users/xxx/Desktop/sandbox/app
on line 13 of scss/_settings.scss
from line 1 of ./scss/app.scss

Any ideas?

Answer 1

Inside of the foundation folder there should be a file named _functions. The underscore in front of the name indicates that it's a partial file and is compiled into app.css using @import.

1: Check to see if _functions is in the foundation folder

2: If it is, check your import path

3: If it's not, try downloading Foundation again

Just as a tip, I like to use a app called Mixture.io. In addition to having a lots of its own features, it makes setting up a Foundation project a cinch.

Hope this helps.
