I see this html template, and inspect it using Chrome inspection tool.
I'm surprised to know that my browser can detect the scss files instead of the compiled css one.
Then, I push Ctrl+U to view the page source, try to find 'scss' but it gives nothing in result.
So, how does the browser know the scss files?
P.S. I'm new to scss/sass/css pre-processor things

The web browser does not understand Sass code, though – it only understands CSS code. This means that you have to transform the Sass code into CSS code. To do this, the compiler will generate a file with the CSS code.
You can not "attach" a SASS/SCSS file to an HTML document. SASS/SCSS is a CSS preprocessor that runs on the server and compiles to CSS code that your browser understands.
What you are seeing is called Sourcemaps. Sourcemaps allow you to see the original source instead of the compiled CSS. This is usually used for debugging.

You can read this article for more about Sourcemaps: https://www.html5rocks.com/en/tutorials/developertools/sourcemaps/
This is mainly used for debugging and most of the times is stripted from production environments (in this case I guess they left it for people to check the actual source code and learn as you did :P)
