A companion plugin to WP-SCSS for working with Sass (.scss format) in Oxygen.
WP-SCSS can be used to compile .scss files but it relies on the directories for the input and output to be present in the theme.
Since Oxygen disables the theme completely, we need to come up with a way to change these directories to point to a different location that we have access to and that is what this plugin does.
Oxygen Sass plugin sets the value of WPSCSS_THEME_DIR constant to point to its directory and comes with scss and css directories.
In WP-SCSS's settings, set Scss Location to /scss/ and CSS Location to /css/ and you are ready to use Sass features like Variables, Nesting, Partials, Import, Mixins and Operators working in your Oxygen site.
This plugin also loads the compiled CSS file in both the Oxygen editor and frontend.
