Hi Peter, I was able to configure a workaround. Hopefully this will work for you. :)
The problem appears to be that NetBeans SASS support was written for the original Ruby SASS implementation. The root cause is that the ide/css.prep/src/org/netbeans/modules/css/prep/sass/SassExecutable.java class contains two parameters that are not in the current SASS implementations (dart-sass, libsass, npm sass etc.): --cache-location & --debug-log, and one parameter that has been renamed: --sourcemap (to --source-map) However, whilst snooping around the NB code, I discovered that there is already a (experimental?) class in NetBeans to work with libsass implementations. It will ignore parameters set in the NetBeans Options (so it will always generate sourcemaps), but was able to compile SASS using the NB11.0 and dart-sass 1.20.1 Here's the steps: 1) Install dart-sass from https://github.com/sass/dart-sass/releases/ 2) Open your netbeans.conf file (/etc/netbeans.conf in the NB installation folder) 3) Add the following to the netbeans_default_options parameter: -J-Dnb.sass.libsass=true 4) Launch Netbeans, Tools -> Options -> HTML5/JS -> CSS PreProcessors and configure it to point to the sass.bat file in your dart-sass installation folder I've only tested with some basic stuff, but what I tested worked.
