{% function 'meta.load-css($url, $with: null)' %}
{% compatibility 'dart: "1.23.0"', 'libsass: false', 'ruby: false' %}
Only Dart Sass currently supports this mixin.
{% endcompatibility %}
{% markdown %}
Loads the [module][] at `$url` and includes its CSS as though it were
written as the contents of this mixin. The `$with` parameter provides
[configuration][] for the modules; if it's passed, it must be a map from
variable names (without `$`) to the values of those variables to use in the
loaded module.
[module]: /documentation/at-rules/use
[configuration]: /documentation/at-rules/use#configuration
If `$url` is relative, it's interpreted as relative to the file in which
`meta.load-css()` is included.
**Like the [`@use` rule][]**:
[`@use` rule]: /documentation/at-rules/use
* This will only evaluate the given module once, even if it's loaded
multiple times in different ways.
* This cannot provide configuration to a module that's already been loaded,
whether or not it was already loaded with configuration.
**Unlike the [`@use` rule][]**:
* This doesn't make any members from the loaded module available in the
current module.
* This can be used anywhere in a stylesheet. It can even be nested within
style rules to create nested styles!
* The module URL being loaded can come from a variable and include
[interpolation][].
[interpolation]: /documentation/interpolation
{% endmarkdown %}
{% headsUp %}
The `$url` parameter should be a string containing a URL like you'd pass to
the `@use` rule. It shouldn't be a CSS `url()`!

{% markdown %}
Returns the arguments for the given [calculation].

If an argument is a number or a nested calculation, it's returned as that
type. Otherwise, it's returned as an unquoted string.

Invokes `$function` with `$args` and returns the result.

Returns whether the current mixin was passed a [`@content` block][].
[`@content` block]: /documentation/at-rules/mixin#content-blocks
Throws an error if called outside of a mixin.

{% function 'meta.feature-exists($feature)', 'feature-exists($feature)', 'returns:boolean' %}
{% markdown %}
Returns whether the current Sass implementation supports `$feature`.
The `$feature` must be a string. The currently recognized features are:
* `global-variable-shadowing`, which means that a local variable will
[shadow][] a global variable unless it has the `!global` flag.
* `extend-selector-pseudoclass`, which means that the [`@extend` rule][]
will affect selectors nested in pseudo-classes like `:not()`.
* `units-level3`, which means that [unit arithmetic][] supports units
defined in [CSS Values and Units Level 3][].
* `at-error`, which means that the [`@error` rule][] is supported.
* `custom-property`, which means that [custom property declaration][] values
don't support any [expressions][] other than [interpolation][].
[shadow]: /documentation/variables#shadowing
[`@extend` rule]: /documentation/at-rules/extend
[unit arithmetic]: /documentation/values/numbers#units

{% function 'meta.function-exists($name, $module: null)', 'function-exists($name)', 'returns:boolean' %}
{% markdown %}
Returns whether a function named `$name` is defined, either as a built-in
function or a user-defined function.
If `$module` is passed, this also checks the module named `$module` for the
function definition. `$module` must be a string matching the namespace of a
[`@use` rule][] in the current file.
[`@use` rule]: /documentation/at-rules/use
{% endmarkdown %}
{% codeExample 'function-exists', false %}

{% function 'meta.get-function($name, $css: false, $module: null)', 'get-function($name, $css: false, $module: null)', 'returns:function' %}
{% markdown %}
Returns the [function][] named `$name`.
[function]: /documentation/values/functions
If `$module` is `null`, this returns the function named `$name` without a
namespace (including [global built-in functions][]). Otherwise, `$module`
must be a string matching the namespace of a [`@use` rule][] in the current
file, in which case this returns the function in that module named `$name`.
[global built-in functions]: /documentation/modules#global-functions
[`@use` rule]: /documentation/at-rules/use
By default, this throws an error if `$name` doesn't refer to Sass function.
However, if `$css` is `true`, it instead returns a [plain CSS function][].
[user-defined]: /documentation/at-rules/function
[plain CSS function]: /documentation/at-rules/function#plain-css-functions
The returned function can be called using [`meta.call()`](#call).

Returns whether a [global variable][] named `$name` (without the `$`)
exists.
[global variable]: /documentation/variables#scope
If `$module` is `null`, this returns whether a variable named `$name`
without a namespace exists. Otherwise, `$module` must be a string matching
the namespace of a [`@use` rule][] in the current file, in which case this
returns whether that module has a variable named `$name`.

{% function 'meta.inspect($value)', 'inspect($value)', 'returns:unquoted string' %}
{% markdown %}
Returns a string representation of `$value`.
Returns a representation of *any* Sass value, not just those that can be
represented in CSS. As such, its return value is not guaranteed to be valid
CSS.

This function is intended for debugging; its output format is not guaranteed
to be consistent across Sass versions or implementations.

{% function 'meta.keywords($args)', 'keywords($args)', 'returns:map' %}

Returns the keywords passed to a mixin or function that takes [arbitrary
arguments][]. The `$args` argument must be an [argument list][].
[arbitrary arguments]: /documentation/at-rules/mixin#taking-arbitrary-arguments
[argument list]: /documentation/values/lists#argument-lists
The keywords are returned as a map from argument names as unquoted strings
(not including `$`) to the values of those arguments.

Returns whether a [mixin][] named `$name` exists.
[mixin]: /documentation/at-rules/mixin
If `$module` is `null`, this returns whether a mixin named `$name` without a

returns whether that module has a mixin named `$name`.
