Opening a terminal

[Windows] Through File Explorer

The easiest way to open a terminal on Windows is to navigate to the folder in File Explorer, click the "File" > "Open Windows PowerShell". This will open the terminal in the correct folder and you can start typing commands immediately.

[Windows] Through command-line

You can also open a terminal and manually navigate to the folder from the terminal. In case you're unfamiliar:

  • Search for cmd to open the Command Prompt
  • Once opened, the path before the > indicates the active folder.
  • To change drives, you can just type D: to navigate to the D:\ drive.
  • To change folder, type in cd <folder> (without the < and >), use tab to auto-complete. If your folder has spaces, it can help to use cd "<folder>". You can navigate multiple folders at once, just add a \ and type in the next folder.

Stopping the watch command

When you use the watch, css watch or twig watch command, a long-running process will start. It will continue to run in the background, unless you stop it. To stop the long-running process, press Ctrl+C.
