We run [Hound][hound],
a hosted service that reviews code for style violations
and comments about them on your GitHub pull requests.
It has run over 290,000 times
on over 2,400 repos,
catching over 530,000 style violations
in Ruby, JavaScript, and CoffeeScript files.

Today, we're pleased to announce that
Hound can now review SCSS files.

## Configuration

Hound uses [SCSS-Lint] to check SCSS style
with [this config][default].
It is disabled by default.

[SCSS-Lint]: https://github.com/causes/scss-lint
[default]: https://github.com/houndci/linters/blob/master/config/scss.yml

Enable or disable each language
by adding a `.hound.yml` file to your repo.
For example:

```yaml
ruby:
  enabled: true

coffee_script:
  enabled: false

java_script:
  enabled: true
  config_file: config/.jshint.json

scss:
  enabled: true
  config_file: config/scss.yml
```

You can also specify a per-language config file anywhere
in your repo if you'd like to override the default config for a language.

## A designer's best friend

Hound is free for public repos,
and $12 per month for private repo.
