How to correctly connect bootstrap 4 version to Laravel using phpStorm?

Question

phpstorm

Hello Guru. Tell me how to correctly connect bootstrap 4 using phpStrom and Laravel. The first time I did this - I added a dependency on bootstrap 4 using composer and then in the resources\assets\sass\ folder in the app.scss file I connected from the vendor twlb/bootstrap boostrap.scss and set the file watch to the esources\assets\sass\ folder in public / css .. But then I have to copy everything manually later to public (js scripts) I understand that there is such an Elixir tool based on gulp. I installed node js globally and then did npm install --global gulp-cli. Then I executed npm -install -no-bin-links in the local directory - the node_modules folder appeared. Then it is written that the gulpfile.js file should be at the root, but it is not there. Well, I manually created and wrote a couple of lines from the official laravel documentation - specifically

elixir(function(mix) {
    mix.sass('app.scss');
});

Then I tried to type gulp but he cursed and I realized that I did not understand at all what I was doing and how. I want both jquery and other scripts to be loaded automatically with the latest versions, sсss is compiled into the desired folder in public. Thanks in advance.

Answer 1

how did gulp "swear"? The text of the error in the studio. may need to be added to gulpfile

const elixir = require('laravel-elixir');

elixir(function(mix) {
    mix.sass('app.scss');
});

Earned. For some reason I did not see the elixir. Installed with npm install laravel-elixir
