title: Sharing a variables file between less and scss
body: <p>I have two large projects, each project has a relatively simple web front-end with multiple themes: different colors and fonts. These themes are the same across projects</p>
  
  <p>One of these projects uses scss and the other uses less. Neither are my strong suit and i am not allowed to make them use one or the other in both places. What i would like to do however is have a shared folder with a file for each theme which could hold all the variables for that theme.</p>
  
  <p>This would allow me to avoid duplication and make maintenance slightly easier, while promoting consistency between the two projects which <em>must</em> have the same colors and fonts between them. Is there a relatively simple way of doing this? </p>
