when I install node-sass for react project it gives me that error and I don't find any solution
I tried to delete it and install it again, I tried to delete py and try again, I tried to start a new project but it's still not working I updated everything to the last version

NodeJS version 16.14.0 and npm version 8.3.1 and python version 2.7.15

and I tried python 3 and still the same

CodePudding user response：

It would work if you delete node-sass and install sass package instead. It is the recommended way to compile Sass by create-react-app, as you can see on the documentation here. So do a:

npm un node-sass --save
npm i sass --save

If you have or want it in your devDependencies, change the --save to --save-dev;

CodePudding user response：

Just change the node version to v14.x.x

Or you may try installing newer versions of node-gpy
