    Your plugins are normally installed. You can check this by opening the node_modules folder and making sure that there is a folder with the same name as the module (in your case, gulp-sass ).

    For reference

    Warn is short for warning . Obviously, the " warning " is not the same as the " error ".

    Moreover, the design:

    SKIPPING OPTIONAL DEPENDENCY

    literally translated as:

    Missed any optional dependency

    This means that there is nothing to worry about.

    You can check the installed plugins in the project folder (where gulpfile.js is located) by gulpfile.js :
    npm ls --depth=0 .
    This is a more convenient form than rummaging through all the endless dependencies of npm.
