Razor Designer
Released
Exciting news! Source-mode is near...
You aren't ready
Wanted to make this news update to people that use Razor Designer to update you on planned work that i've been keeping under wraps.
Essentially, there is a huge gap in the way *ALL* the current UI designers work. Go ahead take a guess...I will wait...
The answer is: You can't edit .razor and .razor.scss files!
That's right. You are being FOOLED! You don't edit Razor and SCSS. You edit (usually) a .JSON "source of truth" that gets translated to .razor and .scss.
What that means in practice is that you can only edit your files from within that specific application. If you hand-edit a few lines then try to open your razor back up into the designer, it will freak out.
What if that wasn't the case? In a perfect world, you could throw any razor file with any scss into a design tool and it should Just Work...right? You should be able to create components, it should be extensible, that was the whole point of razor and scss in the first place.
Right. Stay tuned :)
