Use SASS instead of LESS in new Laravel 5 project

How can I use SASS instead of LESS in a new Laravel 5 installation?

A couple of weeks ago SASS was the chosen pre-processor but since then, Taylor has changed Laravel to use LESS out the box. Laravel Elixir / Gulp still has support for compiling SASS but I am not sure how to get the SASS files into my project in the first place.

If anyone has any ideas of the steps, please holla.

More example how to

elixir(function(mix) {
   mix.sass("app.scss");
});

By default, larvel 5 store all assets in vendor/bower_components

And if you want use for example angular.js, which stored in vendor/bower_components/angular/angular.js

You publish them to your public folder.

 elixir(function(mix) {
       mix.sass("app.scss").
                publish('angular/angular.js', 'public/js/angular/angular.js';
 });

I think, the same logic will work and for sass files.

Or, you can try, via 

var paths = {
    'bootstrap': './vendor/bower_components/bootstrap-sass-official/assets/'
}

elixir(function(mix) {
    mix.sass("style.scss", 'public/css/', {includePaths: [paths.bootstrap + 'stylesheets/']})
});
