Error: File to import not found or unreadable: ~bootstrap/scss/bootstrap


When Sass is precompiled by its own CLI, it processes @imports by itself, and sometimes thus doesn’t understand ~ notation. So you can import "node_modules/bootstrap/scss/bootstrap"; in first place and replaced the ~ notation with node_modules/ instead.


I had a similar error

File to import not found or unreadable: node_modules/bootstrap-sass/assets/stylesheets/bootstrap

Just add "bootstrap-sass": "^3.3.7", to devDependencies at yours package.json, ad run npm update, npm install in your project directory.


For me, I had to change the way I was importing

@import '../../../node_modules/bootstrap/scss/bootstrap';

Then it works
