Installing child theme – getting scss to compile

  • I am trying to install the Understrap child theme. I pasted my custom scss code into _child_theme.scss. However, when I do gulp watch from inside the Understrap theme itself, it doesn’t not compile the child theme scss. When I tried to do ‘gulp watch’ inside the child theme itself, it messed up the theme completely, although then it did notice what I have in _child_theme.scss. I must be doing something wrong – where do I do the gulp watch to get it to compile? I am looking at the instructions at the bottom of this page:

    This process seemed to do it (from within the child theme):
    run “npm install” followed by “gulp scripts” and “gulp styles” to build your child theme
