Description

How come dart sass is available on both brew and choco, but not apt? If there is no plans to put it up there, I think the instructions for installing sass on a linux command line could be made a bit more specific.

Research direction
Investigate the current build and release process of dart sass. The repository likely uses a build system that produces executables. To distribute via apt, one would need to create a Debian package (.deb) and possibly set up a PPA. Check if there is any existing packaging script in the repo. Also review the installation instructions for other Linux methods. The maintainers may have discussed packaging in other issues or PRs. Consider looking at how the Homebrew and Chocolatey packages are maintained as references.
