Hey John Weland and John Woodruff,

Sorry that you're still having issues with the project files. I just re-uploaded the project files for each video in the course. They're now much smaller, so they should download faster, hopefully without errors.

As Patrick Koch mentioned, you can also try unzipping the files with WinRAR.

Hope this helps. :)

He volks, had the same issue with my windows 8 system. I tried to unzip it with winrar worked fine, but took really long.

After I move the folder 2-flexbox-grid-layout in to my xmp/hdocs and run the foundation-apps watch command also in the app directory and got this error. Don't know If I should open new thread?

I propably should also say I already had probs install foundation-apps propably thats causing the error.

But the downloading and unziping worked, as far as I see

so far I just kopied the img folder and work along width the files from video number 1.

I was having the same issue and was able to resolve it by running the following in the project directory:

npm uninstall --save-dev gulp-sass

npm install --save-dev gulp-sass

Thanks John Weland. You can download the same zip file (containing all the stage's prj files) from any video in the stage. See if any of those files work for you while I look into what's causing the error.

Hey John Weland,

What operating system are you on? Does it happen with any of the other file downloads?

It hasn't happened else where. I'm on Windows 10 Pro 64-bit..

Also the teachers note seem to be missing for https://teamtreehouse.com/library/prototyping-with-foundation-for-apps/grid-layout-and-ui-components/grid-challenge-solution
