My Environment

Expected Behaviour

I have a CSS file—tailwindcss/base.css—that I'd like to import from SCSS. This is allowed per the SCSS spec and is a common pattern, particularly when interacting with node modules that provide pre-compiled CSS. This behavior is also supported by sassc.

The following command is expected to import the CSS file and compile it into one final file.

@import "tailwindcss/base";

Current Behavior

Attempting to compile this file using jekyll serve fails:

Error: File to import not found or unreadable: tailwindcss/base. (SassC::SyntaxError)

All other files on the load path can be imported, but CSS from node_modules appears to fail.

This error is not present when I compile the file directly with sassc.
