Install Sass on Windows
From the sass-lang.com instructions:
Before you start using Sass you will need to install Ruby. The fastest way to get Ruby on your Windows computer is to use Ruby Installer. It's a single-click installer that will get everything set up for you super fast.
The installer will also install a Ruby command line powershell application that will let you use the Ruby libraries.
Installing the Sass pre-release
Use the command:
gem install sass --pre
To rollback:
gem uninstall sass
Then:
gem install sass
You can also specify the version. Ex:
gem install sass -v 3.4.13
Updating Sass
gem update sass
