Dart Sass with Windows Linux Subsystem

This post is out of date; there is an updated post here.

Follow the steps below to setup sass, specifically dart-sass in the Windows Linux Subsystem.

  1. Download and extract the dart-sass release you are going to use, at the time of this post I opted for dart-sass-1.18.0-linux-x64.tar.gz
  2. Find your bash.rc, if you setup WLSS after the Fall Creators update it will be located at C:\Users\USERNAME\AppData\Local\Packages\{CanonicalGroupLimited.UbuntuonWindows_...}\LocalState\rootfs\home\LINUXUSER\ or similar.
  3. Add export PATH="/path/to/dart-sass:$PATH" to the end of the file, in my case export PATH="/mnt/c/Users/USERNAME/Documents/GitHub/dart-sass:$PATH"

Open bash, type sass --version to see if everything worked.
