Question about restarting the npm command

[maggiechiuyeechan]

Hi there!

I'm a bit new at web development and was using your boilerplate for a project. But I seem to be failing to restart the project to be served to localhost:3000 once I quit it. I have just been running npm start again in the root directory - is there something I am doing wrong?

[email protected] start /Users/maggiechan/Documents/sites/yellowfever
npm run sass && npm run watch & npm run serve

[email protected] serve /Users/maggiechan/Documents/sites/yellowfever
serve dist

[email protected] sass /Users/maggiechan/Documents/sites/yellowfever
node-sass --include-path scss scss/main.scss dist/main.css

module.js:471
throw err;
^

Hm, not sure.

What version of node are you on? (node --version) Looks like this project wants 5+, and if you're "a bit new to web dev" you should be well above that.

You could also try rm -rf node_modules and npm i and npm start again.
