Angular 7 “expected 'styles' to be an array of strings”

Question

I am trying to run my server and have my app.component.html load on localhost:8000. Instead, I am receiving this error

compiler.js:7992 Uncaught Error

Answer 1

changing scss loader in webpack.config.js fixed it for me. It should look like this:

{
  test: /\.scss$/,
  exclude: [/node_modules/, /\.global\.scss$/],
  use: ["to-string-loader", "css-loader", "sass-loader"]
}

and in package json:

"to-string-loader": "^1.1.6",
"css-loader": "^3.4.2",
"sass-loader": "^8.0.2"
