mixins javascript code example

Example 1: What is a Mixin?

/*
	Mixins are Sass functions that group CSS declarations together.
	We can reuse them later like variables.

	We can create a mixin with @mixin ex: @mixin variable-name {}
	
	we can create a mixin as a function show below and add parameters as well

	After creating the mixin, we can use it in any class with @include command.
	
	This approach simplifies the code.
