SASS Division Update

Sass currently treats / as a division operation in some contexts and a separator in others. This makes it difficult for Sass users to tell what any given / will mean, and makes it hard to work with new CSS features that use / as a separator. -Sass-Lang.org

Deprecated Syntax

@function strip-units($number) {
	@return $number / ($number * 0 + 1);
}

The above example will no longer be supported starting in Dart Sass 2.0, resulting in the following error message:

Deprecation Warning: Using / for division outside of calc() is deprecated and will be removed in Dart Sass 2.0.0

The easiest way to correct the issue is to place the equation inside a calc() function, like so:

Correct Syntax

@function strip-units($number) {
	@return calc($number / ($number * 0 + 1));
}
