Use Dart Sass

Warren Gifford requested to merge dart-sass into master

Created by: felixfbecker

sass-loader recommends using Dart Sass, which has become the official Sass implementation, as opposed to node-sass (libsass).

  • No Node native addons, which means easier Node version upgrades
  • Potentially solve some of the build flakiness (we don't know the root cause, but the errors always occur with node-sass)
  • More precise float division
  • Get new Sass features faster

But it is slightly slower. Build time sampled of enterprise web build from master (BEFORE), in seconds:
