I tried so far:

  • npm rebuild
  • npm rebuild node-sass
  • npm uninstall -g node-sass
  • rm -rf node_module

    • node-sass npm node.js

    You need to do next steps and it should work: 

    rm -rf node_modules package-lock.json 
npm install --saveDev node-sass@4.5.3 
npm install

    Voila :)

    1. Remove 'node-sass' dependency from your package.json
    2. run npm install
    3. run npm i sass
    4. run npm start

    You're ready to go! :)

    by using yarn run:

    yarn add node-sass

    Removed package-lock.json, installed Python 2.7, added an env variable for python path. Ran npm install. Voila !

    node-sass has minimum dependency according to the version of node installed in your system. You can find out the minimum version required here

    Use

    • Node : v14.16.0
    • node-sass: ^4.14.1

    it works for me

    1. Delete package-lock.json
    2. Remove 'node-sass' dependency from your package.json
    3. run npm install
    4. run npm gulp-sass --save-dev
    5. run npm i -d sass
    6. run npm start

    I have found I get node-sass errors when trying to install over a corporate proxy. The first solution is to ensure your .npmrc file has proxy allowance.

    .npmrc

    # Try removing reference to registry, as sometimes your local corporate registry of node_modules may not include node-sass
# // registry=https://....

# note if using special characters in pass, encode them: eg: h@ppy = h%40ppy
strict-ssl=false
proxy=http://<username>:<pass>@proxyhost:<port>
https-proxy=http://<uname>:<pass>@proxyhost:<port>

    NODE_TLS_REJECT_UNAUTHORIZED = 0

    Then in command line before running any install 

    set NODE_TLS_REJECT_UNAUTHORIZED = 0

    Zip node-binding files from node-sass github site in order to download them over corporate network.

    Example: https://github.com/inspiraller/node-sass-bindings

    Add manually in package.json : "node-sass": "4.13.0"

    and update package.json in terminal npm install
