create-react-app sass sourcemaps not working

[mustafaabobakr]

Sass sourcemaps shows only on yarn build

Can we have sourcemaps enabled by default in development ! yarn start

Any estimate for an official fix on this? Thanks.

Any Updates on this ?
Is there a working workaround ?

I suspect the team isn't moving particularly fast on this (btw team you are doing an excellent job!), because the react approach favours component level styling over a sass approach. However if sass is being support then source maps probably should be too. I'd certainly find it useful!

Anybody have temporarily solution ? :(

The following did work for me:

• open node_modules\react-scripts\config\webpack.config.js
• replace "isEnvProduction" with "isEnvDevelopment" for the css-loader, css-module loader, sass loader and sass module loader (between lines 443 - 500)
• start development process with "npm start"

@agairing Those changes would be lost on every npm install so I would advice against ever editing anything inside node_modules

@NotAmaan Right. It's just intended as a temporary solution (if you need working source maps - like myself....).
