4,205 PointsWhy doesn't my test.scss file automatically update changes to my test.css file?
When I make a change to my test.scss file my test.css file is not automatically updated. If I exit the terminal and do the command sass-watch . everything gets updated appropriately...does anyone have any suggestions to fix this?

17,730 Pointsyou say that if you exit the terminal and run --sass watch that it works? if you exit the terminal where are you running the command from? should be if you enter the terminal and run it.

Piotrs-MacBook-Pro:~ PiotrMarciniak$ cd Desktop/ Piotrs-MacBook-Pro:Desktop PiotrMarciniak$ sass --watch .
Sass is watching for changes. Press Ctrl-C to stop. [Listen warning]: Listen will be polling for changes. Learn more at https://github.com/guard/listen#polling-fallback.
as well when I exit the terminal and do the command sass-watch . everything gets updated appropriately
