Natalie Weizenbaum 193a124050 Move the blog onto sass-lang.com
Logdown seems to be basically unmaintained, its servers are
unreliable, and it's been causing some mixed-content errors lately.
This moves all blog posts to sass-lang.com itself; I'll set up
redirects from the blog as best I can once this lands.

I'm excited to announce the launch of [a full rewrite and redesign of the Sass
documentation](/documentation), going live today after eight months of work by
[Jina Anne](https://github.com/jina) and myself! Jina, the lead of Team Sass
Design, is responsible for the layout and visual design of the new
documentation. She made everything gorgeous and readable.
[I](https://github.com/nex3) wrote all the text, so if you see a typo I'm the
one to blame.

In addition to reorganizing and rewriting all the documentation, we've added a special example widget that makes it easy to see how Sass stylesheets translate into CSS. It has tabs for both SCSS and the indented syntax, so you can use whichever you prefer, or switch between them to see the difference.

The Sass function documentation is included in the rewrite. Functions are now organized into easy-to-understand sections, and Jina designed a super readable layout for them.

Best of all, the new documentation has full-text search courtesy of our friends
at [Algolia](https://www.algolia.com/). You can search for features, function
names, or anything else you want to learn more about and find it in an instant.

Please take a look and enjoy! And if you find any issues, don't hesitate to
[file them](https://github.com/sass/sass-site/issues/new) so we can keep making
the website better and better.
