BigCommerce is preparing to deprecate our current node-sass compiler in favor of the more modern dart-sass. This upgrade allows us to ensure the security of our platform, support Node 18 in Stencil CLI, and ensure we’re not running any out-of-date software which may be at additional risk for security vulnerabilities.
