@peterhebert,

Most of our developers are on OSX but we have had our windows counterparts remove that dependency to get things to install. We really should move fsevents out of the dependencies and into optional in package.json.

Yes, that's what I ended up doing, removing that dependency. Good idea to move it into optional... Peter Hebert ***@***.*** https://peterhebert.com/ 514-424-5682
