@each | The `@each` rule makes it easy to emit styles or evaluate code for each element of a [list](/documentation/values/lists) or each pair in a [map](/documentation/values/maps). It’s great for repetitive styles that only have a few variations between them. It’s usually written `@each <variable> in <expression> { ... }`, where the [expression](/documentation/syntax/structure#expressions) returns a list. The block is evaluated for each element of the list in turn, which is assigned to the given variable name. |

With Maps
You can also use @each
to iterate over every key/value pair in a map by
writing it @each <variable>, <variable> in <expression> { ... }
. The key is
assigned to the first variable name, and the element is assigned to the second.

Destructuring
If you have a list of lists, you can use @each
to automatically assign
variables to each of the values from the inner lists by writing it @each <variable...> in <expression> { ... }
. This is known as destructuring, since
the variables match the structure of the inner lists. Each variable name is
assigned to the value at the corresponding position in the list, or null
if the list doesn't have enough values.
{% codeExample 'each' %} $icons: "eye" "\f112" 12px, "start" "\f12e" 16px, "stop" "\f12f" 10px;
@each $name, $glyph, $size in $icons { .icon-#{$name}:before { display: inline-block; font-family: "Icon Font"; content: $glyph; font-size: $size; } }
$icons: "eye" "\f112" 12px, "start" "\f12e" 16px, "stop" "\f12f" 10px
@each $name, $glyph, $size in $icons .icon-#{$name}:before display: inline-block font-family: "Icon Font" content: $glyph font-size: $size {% endcodeExample %}
{% funFact %}
Because @each
supports destructuring and maps count as lists of lists,
@each
's map support works without needing special support for maps in
particular.
