It lists new CSS and Sass tools and libraries that were released, including CSS Modules for encapsulation, a CSS book on enduring stylesheets, and videos on CSS architecture and scaling Sass. It also discusses Sass improvements like faster compilation using libsass, unit testing with True, and Lodash functionality through Sassdash. Finally, it mentions using NPM modules with Eyeglass to add custom Sass functions in JavaScript.
