I agree about SASS and other tools. There are so many now you
have to learn all of them (or none, in my case). Many years ago I
wrote primitive script to do what SASS eventually did for CSS.
The added features were nice, but barley justified the added
complexity and build process. As soon as I joined a team I
abandoned it completely. They can be useful particularly for
larger/long-term projects, but it's a steep upfront cost and is
particularly frustrating for people who just need to make minor
changes.

I was worried about that, but I actually had no problem. I'm on
Windows. I cloned your better-menus, had dub build dpl-docs.exe,
and ran the win32 makefile.
Here's where I'm at. The menus don't use javascript (except when
the screen gets so small it needs a button to open the
navigation, the button uses js). It scales with screen size and
should work on mobile (untested) - I changed doctype to html5 and
added metatags for mobile.
