-**Example** (with [PostCSS Custom Properties] enabled as well):
-
-```js
-// dependencies
-var fs = require("fs")
-var postcss = require("postcss")
-var customProperties = require("postcss-custom-properties")
-var calc = require("postcss-calc")
-
-// css to be processed

-// process css
-var output = postcss()
-  .use(customProperties())
-  .use(calc())
-  .process(css)
-  .css

 Using this `input.css`:
 
 ```css
-:root {
-  --main-font-size: 16px;
-}
-
-body {
-  font-size: var(--main-font-size);
-}
-
 h1 {
-  font-size: calc(var(--main-font-size) * 2);
+  font-size: calc(16px * 2);
   height: calc(100px - 2em);
-  margin-bottom: calc(
-      var(--main-font-size)
-      * 1.5
-    )
+  width: calc(2*var(--base-width));
+  margin-bottom: calc(16px * 1.5);
 }
 ```
 
 you will get:
 
 ```css
-body {
-  font-size: 16px

-
 h1 {
   font-size: 32px;
   height: calc(100px - 2em);
