Find unused SCSS variables. Usage: `./find-unused-sass-variables.sh sassDir/`
#!/usr/bin/env bash
#
# Approach:
# 1. Find variable declaration in the form of "$my-var: anyvalue"
# 2. Loop through found variables and find occurrences of each variable in all sass files
# 3. Filter out vars that occurred only once
