So you're here because bash is outputting some big mess that looks like the following when you tried to install gulp-sass or node-sass via NPM. You've probably updated Node and NPM, switched versions in NVM or HomeBrew and are beating your head while node-sass isn't installing. The issue is likely not in the node or npm version but the package.json.

  > node-sass@0.8.6 install /Users/<path-to-project>/_gulp/node_modules/gulp-sass/node_modules/node-sass
> node build.js

(node:43004) [DEP0006] DeprecationWarning: child_process: options.customFds option is deprecated. Use options.stdio instead.

Go to package.json and look at the versions. Most likely the version is locked to a very old version of node-sass or gulp-sass in your project (or the project you're using), switch it's version to something recent, (as of writing this, it is "gulp-sass": "^3.0.0", or "node-sass": "^4.7.2"). Congrats, it'll now install!
