I am using gulp in my application.

1. installed gulp
2. put the npm script
3. run the script by using "npm start"

Got the error:- **> start

node_modules/.bin/gulp watch 'node_modules' is not recognized as an internal or external command, operable program or batch file.**

In package.json to start the script:- "scripts": { "start": "node_modules/.bin/gulp watch" },

Kindly help me to fix this issue. Thank you

When working with npm packages you do not need to specify a path to executable in node_modules. Try the following setup:

  "scripts": {
    "start": "gulp watch"
  },

Make sure that gulp is present in dependencies as well.

  "dependencies": {
    "gulp": "^4.0.2"
  }
