What is Less?

Less, short for Leaner Style Sheets, is a backwards-compatible language extension for CSS. Its Less.js compiler turns Less code into standard CSS and can run in the browser or on Node.js. On Softaculous it installs as library files in your account for developers to use in their own sites.

How to install Less on Hostripples: choose a plan, open Softaculous, Less is live

Licence: Apache-2.0 · Built with: JavaScript (Less.js compiler) · Official site: lesscss.org

Common uses

  • Maintaining themes with shared colour variables
  • Writing modular stylesheets for larger sites
  • Compiling Less files to CSS during development

Less requirements

  • Database: none
  • Runs in the browser via a script include, or on Node.js for command-line compiling

Less can compile in the visitor's browser via a script include, needing no server-side runtime. Command-line compiling with lessc needs Node.js, which a standard shared cPanel account may not offer, so many developers compile locally and upload the CSS.

Why host Less with Hostripples

  • One-click Less install from Softaculous inside cPanel, with no manual upload or database setup
  • All-NVMe storage and LiteSpeed Enterprise with LSCache for quick page loads
  • Selectable PHP versions per site and CloudLinux account isolation with CageFS
  • Free SSL, daily JetBackup backups and Imunify360 malware protection
  • Free migration of an existing Less site, and 24×7 support in English, Hindi and Marathi

Less Hosting: Frequently Asked Questions

Everything you need to know

Less.js runs either in the browser, using a script include and .less stylesheet links, or on Node.js with the lessc command. It needs no PHP or database. Which mode you choose depends on your workflow.
Yes for browser-side use, which just serves static files. Node.js-based compiling may not be available on a standard shared cPanel account, so compile locally and upload the resulting CSS if you need the command line.
Log in to cPanel, open the Softaculous Apps Installer, find Less under Libraries and click Install. The one-click installer usually takes a few clicks with no manual upload, and places the library files in a directory of your account.
Yes. The official less.js repository is not archived, lists version 4.9.1 as the latest stable release and has 5.0 alpha builds under way. It is licensed under Apache 2.0.
Yes. Less is open-source software released under the Apache-2.0 licence, so there are no software fees — you only pay for your Hostripples hosting plan.
Yes. Every Hostripples cPanel NVMe plan includes the full Softaculous library, so on one account you can run Less alongside other apps in its category (Libraries), such as jQuery and AngularJS, plus hundreds of other applications, subject to your plan's resources. You can add each app on its own domain or subdomain and upgrade to a larger plan at any time.
Less is documented as a light application, so the Starter plan is a sensible start for one site; upgrade any time if traffic grows.
Yes. We migrate your site for free with all hosting plans.
