I’m starting on a new project and want to dig into the new Sass Modules that shipped with 1.23.0 (Oct 2nd) - doesn’t look like it’s compiling right, though.

Is there a way to manually update the Sass version, or does Jekyll have plans to support the new Sass version?

Jekyll doesn’t depend on the Node package you’re referring to. It uses Ruby-based `sass` for versions older than Jekyll 4.0.0 and `sassc` for Jekyll 4.0.0 and beyond.

[`sassc`](https://github.com/sass/sassc-ruby) is locked to a particular version of `libsass` the C++ implementation.

That said, you’re free to compile your sass partials without Jekyll by using Gulp and node packages. There are tutorials written by the community to adopt this workflow. Probably just a couple of Google searches away…
