Performance Improvements in .NET Core 3.0
Stacktrace improvements in .NET Core 2.1
If you write copious amounts of CSS, a pre-processor can greatly decrease your stress levels and save you a lot of precious time. Using tools such as Sass, Less, Stylus or PostCSS makes large and complicated stylesheets clearer to understand and easier to maintain. Thanks to features like variables, functions and mixins the code becomes more organized, allowing developers to work quicker and make less mistakes.
