See https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4nM3y8b_rso for a video of them in action.

A SASS extension which allows you to import CSS files just as you do SCSS and SASS files. Super handy for bower and related tools.

If you're using SASS, Grunt and Bower you may wonder "How do I @import the CSS file from a bower component I just installed?" Well I'm afraid you're asking the wrong question—@import is really only designed to import SCSS files (for now). But there is hope! grunt-contrib-sass also supports concatenation, and to use it simply include the CSS file…

After messing with OpsWorks for a few days I thought I'd document my own introduction to it's most important bits.
AWS OpsWorks, formerly Scalarium, is a chef-based system that deeply integrates with EC2 (security policies, key pairs, etc). OpsWorks acts as web console to configure your entire system, and as a command hub for running chef-solo on all the instances.
A stack represents a collection of inter-connected and inter-configured services.
A stack has lifecycle events which are triggered by any change to the stack configuration (such as, adding a new instance to a layer, or changing the hosts of an application). In this way, the stack acts as an event hub, notifying every instance of any changes.
