cascade option in gulp-autoprefixer












0














While adding the autoprfixing task from the gulp-autoprefixer plugin I noticed the



autoprefixer({ cascade: false })


option. And this option was not clear for me what it is doing.



In the documentation I read that:




cascade (boolean): should Autoprefixer use Visual Cascade, if CSS is uncompressed. Default: true




So I compiled my SASS to the CSS with the cascade: false and with cascade true and I got the same result in both cases:
My SASS:



body
display: flex
p
display: flex


Compiled to the CSS with the autoprefixer({ cascade: false }):



body {
display: -webkit-box;
display: -ms-flexbox;
display: flex; }
body p {
display: -webkit-box;
display: -ms-flexbox;
display: flex; }


Compiled to the CSS with the autoprefixer({ cascade: true }):



body {
display: -webkit-box;
display: -ms-flexbox;
display: flex; }
body p {
display: -webkit-box;
display: -ms-flexbox;
display: flex; }


So my final question is - What the autoprefixer's cascade: false/true option is responsible for?



Thank you very much for the answer.
