Prepros helps front-end developers process source files used to build websites. Add a project folder to compile Sass, Less, Stylus, Pug, Markdown, Slim, or CoffeeScript files without running each compiler separately. It can refresh a browser when files change, so developers can review updated pages while working. A local server provides a way to test the resulting site.

File changes can trigger compilation and a browser refresh, making it easier to check edits as you work.

Project settings control which files are compiled and how output is prepared. Prepros can combine JavaScript files, reduce the size of CSS and scripts, and compress images. Its network preview lets you check pages on other devices, with browser interactions and form entries mirrored across sessions. For publishing, you can export the generated files or transfer them using FTP or SFTP.

Features:

  • Compile Sass, Less, Stylus, and CoffeeScript files
  • Refresh browser pages after source changes
  • Combine and minify JavaScript files
  • Optimize CSS and image assets
  • Synchronize interactions across device previews
  • Export files or upload via FTP and SFTP
