             Summary: Switch from node-sass to dart-sass for sass compilation
                 Key: AIRAVATA-3650
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/AIRAVATA-3650
             Project: Airavata
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: Django Portal
            Reporter: Marcus Christie
            Assignee: Marcus Christie


There are a couple of issues with using node-sass:

- [node-sass (and libsass which it depends on) is 
deprecated](https://sass-lang.com/blog/libsass-is-deprecated)
- it is [very particular about what versions of node-sass work with what 
versions of 
Node](https://github.com/sass/node-sass#node-version-support-policy). In the 
past, upgrades to the version of Node have broken the build because the newer 
version of Node didn't work with the version of node-sass we were using. See 
AIRAVATA-3536 for an example
  - this has downstream affects too on Django apps

Upgrading to the recommended dart-sass should fix both of these issues
