How are exceptions written in SASS/SCSS?

Question

Sass

Didn't find the answer in the documentation.
Is there any special character or something like nesting to write a property for an element that is not nested in the parent?
Something along the lines of:

& > div > .form-item > label, (magic_symbol) .not_child_element{
…
}

Answer 1

Nesting is designed to describe child elements depending on the parent. If you need to reuse part of a style, use placeholders and @extend :

%shared{
 ...
}

.parent {
  & > div > .form-item > label {
    @extend %shared;
  }
}

.not_child_element {
  @extend %shared;
}
