Hello, I'm looking for a lightweight DASH library for my app and want to try this one. I roughly did

$ sudo apt install npm
$ npm install
$ node bower install
$ sudo npm install --global gulp-cli (as specified here https://gulpjs.com/docs/en/getting-started/quick-start/ , since the gulp command was not installed by the previous step for some reason even though gulp was listed in npm list)
$ gulp serve

npm list shows that gulp-compass is installed.

System:

Debian GNU/Linux 10
npm 6.14.10 (upgraded manually from the distribution version which was incompatible with the node version)
node v10.21.0

Is there any way to bypass gulp? I also tried concating both the src and dist files but either case resulted in errors on including the script. I'm new to Javascript development and tooling so apologies.

Okay I figured it out. compass is not included with gulp-compass. gulp-compass appears to just be a wrapper. Compass seems to be a ruby program and so requires these commands to install (debian):

sudo apt install ruby-full
sudo gem install compass
