Developer’s Description

Manage WinLess folder and automatically recompile a LESS file when it is changed.
WinLess is a Windows GUI for LESS.js. If you add a folder to WinLess (either via 'Add folder' or by dropping it on the folder pane), WinLess will start watching the LESS files in it. WinLess will automatically recompile a LESS file when it is changed. If you have a folder called 'LESS' and a folder called 'CSS' on the same level, add the parent folder. WinLess will then automatically use the CSS folder as output folder. Features include automatically compile LESS files on change, minimize to tray, shows tray message on compile errors, and option to start with Windows.
