make sure you change directory?

if you have the test files in your desktop, make sure you cd Desktop. or too the location where your SCSS file is.

also I would recommend having the .scss file in its own folder on the desktop. Ive had issues in the past where the sass --watch . hasnt worked properly automatically detecting the changes of the scss file.

desktop is spellt incorrectly...

I created a test folder , and input this command : cd destop/test. I received the same response.

I fixed the misspelling and ran the test again , it worked this time . The scss did not however.
