JsassCompiler Interface

The JsassCompiler interface is the new central entry point. Various implementations with different backends are available.

Backends

JavetV8JsassCompiler

Info

In early development!

The JavetV8JsassCompiler backend uses Javet in V8 Mode to run dart-sass. This mode can be flexibly expanded with additional ECMAScript modules.

JavetNodeJsassCompiler

Info

Conception phase!

The JavetNodeJsassCompiler backend uses Javet in Node mode to run dart-sass. This mode can be flexibly expanded with additional NPM modules.

EmbeddedSassJsassCompiler

Info

Conception phase!

The EmbeddedSassJsassCompiler backend uses the Embedded Sass Protocol to delegate the compile process. This mode effectively has the smallest resource footprint and requires an embedded Sass service.

More backends are being planned 🥳
