Transpile Sass to CSS using the LibSass transpiler included in Hugo's extended edition, or install Dart Sass to use the latest features of the Sass language.
Sass has two forms of syntax: SCSS and indented. Hugo supports both.
Options
- transpiler
- (
string
) The transpiler to use, eitherlibsass
(default) ordartsass
. Hugo's extended edition includes the LibSass transpiler. To use the Dart Sass transpiler, see the installation instructions below. - targetPath
- (
string
) If not set, the transformed resource's target path will be the original path of the asset file with its extension replaced by.css
. - vars
- (
map
) A map of key/value pairs that will be available in thehugo:vars
namespace. Useful for initializing Sass variables from Hugo templates.
// LibSass
@import "hugo:vars";
// Dart Sass
@use "hugo:vars" as v;
- outputStyle
- (
string
) Output styles available to LibSass includenested
(default),expanded
,compact
, andcompressed
. Output styles available to Dart Sass includeexpanded
(default) andcompressed
. - precision
- (
int
) Precision of floating point math. Not applicable to Dart Sass. - enableSourceMap
- (
bool
) Iftrue
, generates a source map. - sourceMapIncludeSources
- (
bool
) Iftrue
, embeds sources in the generated source map. Not applicable to LibSass. - includePaths
- (
slice
) A slice of paths, relative to the project root, that the transpiler will use when resolving@use
and@import
statements.

Dart Sass
The extended version of Hugo includes LibSass to transpile Sass to CSS. In 2020, the Sass team deprecated LibSass in favor of Dart Sass.
Use the latest features of the Sass language by installing Dart Sass in your development and production environments.
Installation overview
Dart Sass is compatible with Hugo v0.114.0 and later.
If you have been using Embedded Dart Sass1 with Hugo v0.113.0 and earlier, uninstall Embedded Dart Sass, then install Dart Sass. If you have installed both, Hugo will use Dart Sass.
If you install Hugo as a Snap package there is no need to install Dart Sass. The Hugo Snap package includes Dart Sass.
Installing in a development environment
When you install Dart Sass somewhere in your PATH, Hugo will find it.
OS | Package manager | Site | Installation |
---|---|---|---|
Linux | Homebrew | brew.sh | brew install sass/sass/sass |
Linux | Snap | snapcraft.io | sudo snap install dart-sass |
macOS | Homebrew | brew.sh | brew install sass/sass/sass |
Windows | Chocolatey | chocolatey.org | choco install sass |
Windows | Scoop | scoop.sh | scoop install sass |
You may also install prebuilt binaries for Linux, macOS, and Windows.
Run hugo env
to list the active transpilers.
Installing in a production environment
For CI/CD deployments (e.g., GitHub Pages, GitLab Pages, Netlify, etc.) you must edit the workflow to install Dart Sass before Hugo builds the site2. Some providers allow you to use one of the package managers above, or you can download and extract one of the prebuilt binaries.
GitHub Pages
To install Dart Sass for your builds on GitHub Pages, add this step to the GitHub Pages workflow file:
- name: Install Dart Sass
run: sudo snap install dart-sass
If you are using GitHub Pages for the first time with your repository, GitHub provides a starter workflow for Hugo that includes Dart Sass. This is the simplest way to get started.
GitLab Pages
To install Dart Sass for your builds on GitLab Pages, the .gitlab-ci.yml
file should look something like this:
variables:
HUGO_VERSION: 0.121.0
DART_SASS_VERSION: 1.69.5
GIT_DEPTH: 0
GIT_STRATEGY: clone
GIT_SUBMODULE_STRATEGY: recursive
TZ: America/Los_Angeles

# Install Dart Sass
- curl -LJO https://github.com/sass/dart-sass/releases/download/${DART_SASS_VERSION}/dart-sass-${DART_SASS_VERSION}-linux-x64.tar.gz
- tar -xf dart-sass-${DART_SASS_VERSION}-linux-x64.tar.gz
- cp -r dart-sass/* /usr/local/bin
- rm -rf dart-sass*
# Install Hugo
- curl -LJO https://github.com/gohugoio/hugo/releases/download/v${HUGO_VERSION}/hugo_extended_${HUGO_VERSION}_linux-amd64.deb
- apt install -y ./hugo_extended_${HUGO_VERSION}_linux-amd64.deb
- rm hugo_extended_${HUGO_VERSION}_linux-amd64.deb
# Build
- hugo --gc --minify
artifacts:
paths:
- public
rules:
- if: $CI_COMMIT_BRANCH == $CI_DEFAULT_BRANCH
Netlify
To install Dart Sass for your builds on Netlify, the netlify.toml
file should look something like this:
[build.environment]
HUGO_VERSION = "0.121.0"
DART_SASS_VERSION = "1.69.5"
TZ = "America/Los_Angeles"
[build]
publish = "public"
command = """\
curl -LJO https://github.com/sass/dart-sass/releases/download/${DART_SASS_VERSION}/dart-sass-${DART_SASS_VERSION}-linux-x64.tar.gz && \
tar -xf dart-sass-${DART_SASS_VERSION}-linux-x64.tar.gz && \
rm dart-sass-${DART_SASS_VERSION}-linux-x64.tar.gz && \
export PATH=/opt/build/repo/dart-sass:$PATH && \
hugo --gc --minify \
"""
Example
To transpile with Dart Sass, set transpiler
to dartsass
in the options map passed to resources.ToCSS
. For example:
{{ with resources.Get "sass/main.scss" }}
{{ $opts := dict "transpiler" "dartsass" "targetPath" "css/style.css" }}
{{ with . | toCSS $opts }}
{{ if hugo.IsDevelopment }}
<link rel="stylesheet" href="{{ .RelPermalink }}">
{{ else }}
{{ with . | minify | fingerprint }}
<link rel="stylesheet" href="{{ .RelPermalink }}" integrity="{{ .Data.Integrity }}" crossorigin="anonymous">
{{ end }}
{{ end }}
{{ end }}
{{ end }}
Miscellaneous
If you build Hugo from source and run mage test -v
, the test will fail if you install Dart Sass as a Snap package. This is due to the Snap package's strict confinement model.
