Stylus vs OneTab

Stylus has an extremely terse syntax. Colons, semicons and braces are all optional allowing you to write Stylus code however you want.

hover-darken(percent)
  if @background
    &:hover
      background: darken(@background, percent)

.test
  background: blue
  hover-darken(50%)

The hierarchy is required to be whitespace indented which makes it easier to identify which parent selectors child selectors belong to.

Not only does Stylus support all the features from Less and Sass, it provides features not found anywhere else:

• You can get properties from parents and pull them into children and/or mixins - if the property isn't found, it will bubble up until it finds a match
• Introspective API, where a CSS block can tell if it’s at root level or not and change its output based on this
• Splats - taking variable amount of arguments in as an array
• Automatically vendor prefixes @keyframes
• Pass a CSS literal block wherever you want
• Convert files to base64

One of Stylus' distinguishing features is transparent mixins: reusuable, possibly dynamic styles that look exactly like native CSS properties. This is particularly useful for using future non-prefixed properties and having them transparently expand to their prefixed counterparts without any special, preprocessor-specific syntax.

Stylus runs on node.js which makes it very easy to integrate into your project if you're using npm.

@extend gives inheritance and unlike for other preprocessors, you can pass any CSS selector, not just classes.

Stylus has clear and detailed error reporting that includes stack traces and line numbers.

Nib is Stylus's answer to Compass, but with the advantage of transparent mixins.

Ride css add dozens of useful mixins to Stylus. Compatible with axis, nib and other mixins libraries.

Roots is a awesome toolkit that contains a CSS library for Stylus that provides the benefits of Nib and more. It is essentially a collection of mixins that add a variety of enhancements to the Stylus workflow.

Stylus can also convert files to base64 which provides the following advantages:

• Easier to maintain
• Gives you the cleanliness of a URL link resource as well the benefits of base64 encoding
• Reducing the number of requests

Functions like max(), min(), sum(), all collour handling functions are all there.

It takes all of your tabs (choose between all/all-except-current/current/all-to-right/all-to-left) and turns them into links in a special OneTab tab where you can further manage your tabs by dividing them into groups, removing duplicates and securing them so that they can't be removed unless unsecured.

You can drag and drop links/tabs to reorder them by relevance, or to move them from one list to another.

The OneTab dashboard only appears the first time you open your browser after quitting, although you can also make it appear through the extension button in the extensions bar. This is less invasive behavior than the Chrome extensions that appear every time you open a new browser tab.

OneTab provides just the right amount of meta-info about the tabs you've saved. It groups them by session, and tells you how many tabs are in each session, as well as the date the session was created. Every saved tab includes the bookmarked favicon and page title.

OneTab makes it very easy to restore, delete, share, lock, rename, and favorite your saved tab sessions. OneTab also makes it easy to share, export and import URLs into your OneTab dashboard as a whole.
