I am getting into less.js, for development and production on client sites. It’s amazing how it can extend CSS, and for me there isn’t really that much difference in speed when using it.

I’m wondering if it’s really that important to keep a .css fallback file for less.js? I’m sure if a user is browsing without JavaScript enabled, then they wouldn’t really be able to browse much other sites anyways. What do you think? Does it really matter?

Some say it’s not mean’t for production, but is that true?

    If your using less I suggest you precompile your less files into CSS files. Relying on less to parse your css files on the client side is introducing another point of failure.

    On their website http://lesscss.org/ there are plenty of examples of how to do this.

    If your using .NET you can use T4 Templates or you can use DotLess which uses an httphandler to compile the less file on the fly server side.
