/// Susy3 API Functions /// =================== /// These three functions form the core of Susy's /// layout-building grid API. /// /// - Use `span()` and `gutter()` to return any grid-width, /// and apply the results wherever you need them: /// CSS `width`, `margin`, `padding`, `flex-basis`, `transform`, etc. /// - For asymmetrical-fluid grids, /// `slice()` can help manage your nesting context. /// /// All three functions come with an unprefixed alias by default, /// using the `susy` import. /// Import the `susy-prefix` partial instead, /// if you only only want prefixed versions of the API. /// /// This is a thin syntax-sugar shell around /// the "Su" core-math functions: `su-span`, `su-gutter`, and `su-slice`. /// If you prefer the more constrained syntax of the math engine, /// you are welcome to use those functions instead. /// /// @group b-api /// @see susy-span /// @see susy-gutter /// @see susy-slice /// @see su-span /// @see su-gutter /// @see su-slice /// ## Shorthand /// /// All functions draw on the same shorthand syntax in two parts, /// seperated by the word `of`. /// /// ### Span Syntax: `` [`` ``] /// The first part describes the /// **span** width, location, and spread in any order. /// Only the width is required: /// /// - `span(2)` will return the width of 2 columns. /// - `span(3 wide)` will return 3-columns, with an additional gutter. /// - location is only needed with asymmetrical grids, /// where `span(3 at 2)` will return the width of /// specific columns on the grid. /// Since these are functions, they will not handle placement for you. /// /// ### Context Syntax: `[of ]` /// The second half of Susy's shorthand /// describes the grid-**context** – /// available columns, container-spread, and optional gutter override – /// in any order. /// All of these settings have globally-defined defaults: /// /// - `span(2 of 6)` will set the context to /// a slice of 6 columns from the global grid. /// More details below. /// - `span(2 of 12 wide)` changes the container-spread /// as well as the column-context. /// - `span(2 of 12 set-gutters 0.5em)` /// will override the global gutters setting /// for this one calculation. /// /// A single unitless number for `columns` /// will be treated as a slice of the parent grid. /// On a grid with `columns: susy-repeat(12, 120px)`, /// the shorthand `of 4` will use the parent `120px` column-width. /// You can also be more explicit, /// and say `of susy-repeat(4, 100px)`. /// If you are using asymmetrical grids, /// like `columns: (1 1 2 3 5 8)`, /// Susy can't slice it for you without knowing which columns you want. /// The `slice` function accepts exactly the same syntax as `span`, /// but returns a list of columns rather than a width. /// Use it in your context like `of slice(first 3)`. /// /// @group b-api // Susy Span // --------- /// This is the primary function in Susy — /// used to return the width of a span across one or more columns, /// and any relevant gutters along the way. /// With the default settings, /// `span(3)` will return the width of 3 columns, /// and the 2 intermediate gutters. /// This can be used to set the `width` property of grid elements, /// or `margin` and `padding` /// to push, pull, and pad your elements. /// /// - This is a thin syntax-sugar shell around /// the core-math `su-span()` function. /// - The un-prefixed alias `span()` is available by default. /// /// @group b-api /// @see su-span /// @see $susy /// /// @param {list} $span - /// Shorthand expression to define the width of the span, /// optionally containing: /// - a count, length, or column-list span. /// - `at $n`, `first`, or `last` location on asymmetrical grids, /// where `at 1 == first`, /// and `last` will calculate the proper location /// based on columns and span. /// - `narrow`, `wide`, or `wider` for optionally spreading /// across adjacent gutters. /// - `of $n ` for available grid columns /// and spread of the container. /// Span counts like `of 6` are valid /// in the context of symmetrical grids, /// where Susy can safely infer a slice of the parent columns. /// - and `set-gutters $n` to override global gutter settings. /// /// @param {map} $config [()] - /// Optional map of Susy grid configuration settings. /// See `$susy` documentation for details. /// /// @return {length} - /// Calculated length value, using the units given, /// or converting to `%` for fraction-based grids, /// or a full `calc` function when units/fractions /// are not comparable outside the browser. /// /// @example scss - span half the grid /// .foo { /// // the result is a bit under 50% to account for gutters /// width: susy-span(6 of 12);

} // Susy Gutter // ----------- /// The gutter function returns /// the width of a single gutter on your grid, /// to be applied where you see fit – /// on `margins`, `padding`, `transform`, or element `width`. /// /// - This is a thin syntax-sugar shell around /// the core-math `su-gutter()` function. /// - The un-prefixed alias `gutter()` is available by default. /// /// @group b-api /// @see su-gutter /// @see $susy /// /// @param {list | number} $context [null] - /// Optional context for nested gutters, /// including shorthand for /// `columns`, `gutters`, and `container-spread` /// (additional shorthand will be ignored) /// /// @param {map} $config [()] - /// Optional map of Susy grid configuration settings. /// See `$susy` documentation for details. /// /// @return {length} - /// Width of a gutter as `%` of current context, /// or in the units defined by `column-width` when available /// /// @example scss - add gutters before or after an element /// .floats { /// float: left;
