ZURB Foundation for Compass

To create your first project, you’ll need to have the ZURB-foundation gem installed, this will include all the necessary dependencies.

To install from Ruby Gems

In Terminal:

  • ‘(sudo) gem install ZURB-foundation`

To install locally

In Terminal:

  • ‘git clone git://github.com/zurb/foundation-sass.git`

  • ‘cd foundation-sass`

  • ‘sudo gem build ZURB-foundation.gemspec`

  • ‘sudo gem install ZURB-foundation-2.2.1.4.gem`

To create your first project

  • ‘cd path/to/where-you-want-new-project`

  • .scss syntax: ‘compass create <my_project> -r ZURB-foundation –using ZURB-foundation –force`

  • .sass syntax: ‘compass create <my_project> -r ZURB-foundation –using ZURB-foundation –syntax sass –force`

Now you should have a new project folder created with the foundation file structure, but with the awesome advantages of having all the css pre-processed with Sass.

To Add ZURB-foundation to an existing project

  • Add ‘require “ZURB-foundation”`

  • ‘cd path/to/your-project`

  • run: ‘compass install ZURB-foundation`

Custom Settings

Work with your own custom settings by adjusting the _settings.sass file in a new project!
