Sass vs webapp2: What are the differences?

Developers describe Sass as "Syntactically Awesome Style Sheets". Sass is an extension of CSS3, adding nested rules, variables, mixins, selector inheritance, and more. It's translated to well-formatted, standard CSS using the command line tool or a web-framework plugin. On the other hand, webapp2 is detailed as "Lightweight Python web framework compatible with Google App Engine’s webapp". webapp2 is a simple. it follows the simplicity of webapp, but improves it in some ways: it adds better URI routing and exception handling, a full featured response object and a more flexible dispatching mechanism.

Sass belongs to "CSS Pre-processors / Extensions" category of the tech stack, while webapp2 can be primarily classified under "Frameworks (Full Stack)".

Sass is an open source tool with 12K GitHub stars and 1.93K GitHub forks. Here's a link to Sass's open source repository on GitHub.
