The only one reason why you get some error like that  it s because your node version is not compatible with your node-sass version  So  make sure to checkout the documentation at here  https   www npmjs com package node-sass Or this image below will be help you  what the node version can use the node-sass version   For an example  if you re using node version 12 on your windows   quot maybe quot    then you should have to install the node-sass version 4 12  npm install node-sass 4 12  Yeah  like that  So now you only need to install the node-sass version recommended by the node-sass team with the nodes installed on your computer

TL DR  npm uninstall node-sass npm install node-sass 4 14 1  Or  if using yarn  default in newer CRA versions   yarn remove node-sass yarn add node-sass 4 14 1   Edit2  sass-loader v10 0 5 fixes it  Problem is  you might not be using it as a project dependency  but more as a dependency of your dependencies  CRA uses a fixed version  angular-cli locks to node-sass v4 an so on  The recommendation for now is  if you re installing just node-sass check below workaround  and the note   If you re working on a blank project and you can manage your webpack configuration  not using CRA or a CLI to scaffold your project  install latest sass-loader   Edit  this error comes from sass-loader  There is a semver mismatch since node-sass  latest is v5 0 0 and sass-loader expects  4 0 0  There is an open issue on their repository with an associated fix that needs to be reviewed  Until then  refer to the solution below   Workaround  don t install node-sass 5 0 0 yet  major version was just bumped   Uninstall node-sass npm uninstall node-sass Then install the latest version  before 5 0  npm install node-sass 4 14 1  Note  LibSass  hence node-sass as well  is deprecated and dart-sass is the recommended implementation  You can use sass instead  which is a node distribution of dart-sass compiled to pure JavaScript  Be warned though   Be careful using this approach  React-scripts uses sass-loader v8  which prefers node-sass to sass  which has some syntax not supported by node-sass   If both are installed and the user worked with sass  this could lead to errors on css compilation
