The most minimal way of doing an installation is using sassc, the C binding.
apt install git build-essential cd /opt git clone https://github.com/sass/libsass.git git clone https://github.com/sass/sassc.git libsass/sassc echo 'SASS_LIBSASS_PATH="/opt/libsass"'>> /etc/environment source /etc/environment echo $SASS_LIBSASS_PATH # Make sure it worked… cd libsass/sassc make ln -sn /opt/libsass/sassc/bin/sassc /usr/local/bin/ sassc file.scss file.css # run like this
