I'm completely new to Gulp but I wanted to try it out. Due to restrictions/admin rights on my desktop and moving about a lot, I need things portable, and so am currently running everything I need off a stick.
I've browsed similar posts but none of the solutions seemed to solve the problem I'm having.
I used the following commands in cmd with Ruby to install gulp -
npm install -g gulp
and then
npm install --save-dev gulp
I'm seeing the folders and files, but when I run gulp -v
in cmd I get the following:
" 'gulp' is not recognized as an internal or external command, operable program or batch file."
I'm not sure if this is a problem related to the fact I don't have admin rights for this computer or not. Any help so I can troubleshoot further would be much appreciated!

Or: The term 'gulp' is not recognized as the name of a cmdlet, function, script file, or operable program. This usually means that you need to install the Gulp CLI globally on your computer and check that npm is added to your Path environment variables.
First run npm -g install gulp-cli then run gulp -v. Alternatively, you can just run npm list gulp.
To install the Gulp CLI globally, on your command line, run npm install gulp-cli -g . The -g flag means npm will install the package in the global npm directory, so you can run the gulp command from any directory.
