Support newer versions of NodeJS

[jeisses]

At the moment only NodeJS 14 can be used to run this project, as we are relying on node-sass (?)

I'm not an expert is the NodeJS ecosystem, could you comment @djmbritt on what is needed to support newer node versions?

Indeed, node-sass is the main stumbling block when trying to update to a new version.
The main development flow currently is to use a docker container.

I'm suspecting this is needed for the deployment? As v14 is not supported anymore by GitHub Actions?

But this shouldn't take too long, I'm estimating two hours, I can take a look at this and upgrade node-sass. I've done it before for other repos.

It is mainly an inconvenience for newcomers, and I assume we are also missing out on features and security improvements introduced in later node versions
