node.js - Node Sass setup

Question

I am trying to set up development for node-sass but I keep getting "6 packages are looking for funding" which affects anytime I run npm run sass, and I get back errors. I installed node-sass@4.14.1

$ npm install node-sass@4.14.1
npm WARN deprecated request@2.88.2: request has been deprecated, see https://github.com/request/request/issues/3142
npm WARN deprecated har-validator@5.1.5: this library is no longer supported

Any solution or any other way of setting up sass on vscode that will still function the normal way sass functions

Answer 1

Node-Sass is now offically depricated. Switch to Dart-Sass instead, which is not only the maintained, but also the more feature-rich version. You can find a guide on how to install on their website.
