Mixins can also be values! You can’t directly write a mixin as a value, but you can pass a mixin’s name to the meta.get-mixin() function to get it as a value. Once you have a mixin value, you can pass it to the meta.apply() mixin to call it. This is for libraries to be extensible in complex and powerful ways.

SCSS Syntax

@use "sass:meta";
@use "sass:string";

/// Passes each element of $list to a separate invocation of $mixin.
@mixin apply-to-all($mixin, $list) {
  @each $element in $list {
    @include meta.apply($mixin, $element);
  }
}

@mixin font-class($size) {
  .font-#{$size} {
    font-size: $size;
  }
}

$sizes: [8px, 12px, 2rem];

@include apply-to-all(meta.get-mixin("font-class"), $sizes);
