Reason
It has nothing to do with SkyWalking.
According to https://github.com/sass/node-sass/issues/1176, if you live in countries where requesting resources from GitHub and npmjs.org is very slowly, some precompiled binaries for dependency node-sass will fail to be downloaded during npm install, then npm will try to compile them itself. That's why python2 is needed.
Resolve
1. Use mirror. Such as in China, please edit skywalking\apm-webapp\pom.xml
Find
<configuration>
<arguments>install --registry=https://registry.npmjs.org/</arguments>
</configuration>
Replace it with
<configuration>
<arguments>install --registry=https://registry.npm.taobao.org/ --sass_binary_site=https://npm.taobao.org/mirrors/node-sass/</arguments>
</configuration>
