What is SCSS to CSS Converter?

Paste nested SCSS and get flat, plain CSS instantly, turning `.card { .title { } }` into `.card .title { }`. Handles selector nesting (including `&` for compound selectors like `&:hover`), which is the core SCSS feature that plain CSS can't express.

How to Use SCSS to CSS

  1. 1

    Paste the Nested SCSS: Enter SCSS with nested selectors, including & for compound selectors.

  2. 2

    Read the Flattened Result Instantly: The plain CSS output appears automatically as you type.

  3. 3

    Copy the Result: Use the copy button to copy the flattened CSS.

How It Works

Nested SCSS rule blocks are parsed and each selector is flattened by joining it with its ancestor selectors. A descendant selector gets a space (`.card .title`), while `&` is joined directly with no space so it can express compound selectors and pseudo-classes (`.card:hover`) correctly.

Example

Before
.card {
  color: black;
  .title {
    font-weight: bold;
  }
  &:hover {
    color: blue;
  }
}
After
.card .title {
  font-weight: bold;
}

.card:hover {
  color: blue;
}

.card {
  color: black;
}

The nested `.title` block flattens into `.card .title`, and `&:hover` joins directly onto `.card` with no space.

Common Use Cases

Converting a small nested SCSS snippet to plain CSS for a place that has no Sass build step: an inline `<style>` block, a CMS's custom-CSS field, or a quick one-off page where pulling in a full Sass compiler isn't worth it.
