`

Make sure that you select the node target when bundling your projects for the NodeGUI platform (using the build and watch commands). Read about project targets here.

#### Example
Building for node target:
`bash
npx parcel build --target node src/index.tsx
`

Watching for node target (auto bundle build upon file save):
`bash
npx parcel watch --target node src/index.tsx
`

Import and use css with your NodeGUI windows's styleSheet prop.

#### Usage
In order to use CSS in your NodeGUI app, simply require it:
`js
const style = require('./style.css');
`

And use it with the Window widget's styleSheet property:

`jsx

...

`

> Note: Do not forget that selectors in NodeGUI apps are the elements' ids, and therefore you should use the #thisIsId selector in your stylesheets.

#### Example
_style.css_
`css
#container {
flex: 1;
flex-direction: column;
min-height: '100%';
background: #4B4B4B;
}

#text {
color: white;
}
`

_app.jsx_
`jsx
const App = () => {
return (
styleSheet={require('./style.css')}
>

Hello, world


);
};
`

#### Using with pre-processors (SASS \ LESS)
Simply follow the regular guide regarding how to use said pre-processors in your project:
* SASS: https://parceljs.org/scss.html
* LESS: https://parceljs.org/less.html
* Stylus: https://parceljs.org/stylus.html

The plugin will automatically utilize their output CSS in your project.
