How and where do I go to get the plugin to work? I can't just run the script if I don't have or know where the files go.

I am trying to optimize my css but I don't know where to put the plugin files. Do they go in the node_modules folder? First time doing this so I am new to everything.

I learned that if I click on the links and view the readme.md file I can install those plugins by running the commands there. The only one I am having issues with now is the postcss plugin as it isn't just a simple install. Could somebody walk me through the process of properly setting that up?

Hi Brenna, it would helpful if you could paste your code to better understand. Also please note that the instructor is using Gulp3. The current version is Gulp4 which has quite a few differences.
