Ok, so I ran gulp in my project and got this back:

Error: Cannot find module 'concat-map' at Function.Module._resolveFilename (module.js:336:15) at Function.Module._load (module.js:278:25) at Module.require (module.js:365:17) at require (module.js:384:17) at Object.<anonymous> (C:\Users\Owner\Documents\app\node_modules\gulp-load-plugins\node_modules\multimatch\node_modules\minimatch\node_modules\brace-expansion\index.js:1:79) at Module._compile (module.js:460:26) at Object.Module._extensions..js (module.js:478:10) at Module.load (module.js:355:32) at Function.Module._load (module.js:310:12) at Module.require (module.js:365:17) at require (module.js:384:17)

I think to install module 'concat-map', but am not sure where to install it.

Also, I get this when I run npm install in the project: npm WARN unmet dependency which is version 2.2.5

You might want to find the gulpfile.js and see what dependencies are needed and install those. That might be the problem. concat-map is a dependency that is not installed on your computer.

So, should I just npm concat-map in my project file? Or do I have to specifically get that into the gulpfile.js? If so, How do I do that?

you can just do npm conca-map but if there are other dependencies needed then you'll know which ones once in the gulpfile.js

OK, I've add concat-map, and I'm in the gulpfile.js What am I looking for in that file? Also, what does this mean? npm WARN unmet dependency which is version 2.2.5 How do I get that dependency?

I'm sorry I meant the package.json file. In there you'll find a list of dependencies that should look something like this.

package.json 
{
  "name": "code-pen",
  "version": "1.0.0",
  "description": "",
  "main": "index.js",
  "scripts": {
    "test": "echo \"Error: no test specified\" && exit 1"
  },
  "author": "",
  "license": "ISC",
  "devDependencies": {
    "browser-sync": "^2.8.0",
    "gulp": "^3.9.0",
    "gulp-ruby-sass": "^1.0.5",
    "gulp-sourcemaps": "^1.5.2",
    "gulp-watch": "^4.3.4"
  }
}

Those devDependencies are everything that the project requires in order to work along with which versions.

Anybody know why the "foundation-apps watch" command would stop serving the app? I tried "npm start". That worked, and so did "gulp". But... why would the "foundation-aops watch" command just stop working?
