The Sass @import Statement

The Sass documentation states that:

You can create partial Sass files that contain little snippets of CSS that you can include in other Sass files. This is a great way to modularize your CSS and help keep things easier to maintain. A partial is simply a Sass file named with a leading underscore. You might name it something like _partial.scss. The underscore lets Sass know that the file is only a partial file and that it should not be generated into a CSS file. Sass partials are used with the @import directive.

Here's a simple example:

@import 'partials/normalize';
@import 'partials/buttons';
@import 'partials/general';
