Hi, there is a problem with couple of things on windows (I'm currently using 8.1 64).
First you need to install all dependencies manually. You can find list of them in file called "package.json".
There are:

• gulp
• gulp-sass
• gulp-autoprefixer
• browser-sync - this is main issue.
  To install browser-sync you should follow these instructions:
  http://www.browsersync.io/docs/#windows-users
  You also need python v.2xxx and node-gyp.

Then you need to change a line of code in gulpfile.js:

16 return cp.spawn('jekyll', ['build'], {stdio: 'inherit'}).on('close', done);

To:

16 return cp.spawn(jekyll.bat, ['build'], {stdio: 'inherit'}).on('close', done);

I had similar problems and finally I got all working.

I did all that you mentioned but I'm STILL getting an error
The exact bug report is as follow:

What should I do??

Looks like Windows couldn't run or find jekyll.
Have you installed jekyll properly?

from jekyll-gulp-sass-browser-sync.

Yeah I did gem install Jekyll it installed without any problems

If you type "jekyll.bat" into cmd, do you get response?

from jekyll-gulp-sass-browser-sync.

Is this problem been solved yet? Do we have any solution now?

from jekyll-gulp-sass-browser-sync.

The best way of getting around this is to uninstall your whole dev environment and set up a clean dev environment in a separate folder where you install your Python(with dev kit as you will need that), Ruby etc. In that folder make a projects file and run all your project from there using cmd. This will negate the windows bullshit. Will post screenshots and instructions this week.
