Not sure what File Watcher is trying to tell me
I'm going through a tutorial where the teacher just pastes a bunch of Sass (?) from a pre-made file, so I paste it too and then get the "Enable File Watcher to compile SCSS to CSS?" prompt, I click Yes, then get the "New File Watcher" pop-up, and everything looks fine I guess (I'm kind of new to SCSS and have never used it in PHPStorm)... but I'm not sure why the "Program:" field value is red:
I click the folder icon and it's just in the sass folder I'm in (this is in Laravel), and I'm not sure what to select.
I read in JetBrains' docs that I need to choose the sass program to run, and that I should run a node command:
`npm install -g sass`
That's fine, but I'm afraid it'll screw up my experience with the tutorial (the teacher is using VS Code, which I don't prefer)... `node run dev` actually compiles the sass, yay, I'm just not sure if I'm understanding what I'm looking at, or if I should run the suggested command at this point. I'm not sure you can even answer any of my questions here sorry

You have to know if it is sass or scss (they are basically the same) AND the path to the file (unless you made it global). You also have to set the paths to to normal css file in the arguments section.

I'm unsure if you're saying they're interchangeable with your comment of "they are basically the same"... if not, I'm not sure of the relevance of the comment within this context. Does that matter? Is there some sort of SASS substitute I may already have that would work as SCSS?
SASS compiler works for both .sass and .scss
The watcher tells you that sass compiler can't be found in your $PATH. If you have it installed (with npm install -g sass as suggested in Help, or locally, in your project), please specify a full path to a binary
