Running npm for laravel application

I am trying to run npm run watch in order to implement the changes I performed in my assets files but it isn't working. I am creating a laravel tool.

I have installed npm without any errors but when I run npm run watch I got the following error. Thanks for the help.

 > npm run development -- --watch > @ development C:\Users\\Documents\tool > cross-env NODE_ENV=development node_modules/webpack/bin/webpack.js --progress --hide-modules --config=node_modules/laravel-mix/setup/webpack.config.js "--watch" 'cross-env' is not recognized as an internal or external command, operable program or batch file. npm ERR! code ELIFECYCLE npm ERR! errno 1 npm ERR! @ development: `cross-env NODE_ENV=development node_modules/webpack/bin/webpack.js --progress --hide-modules --config=node_modules/laravel-mix/setup/webpack.config.js "--watch"` npm ERR!

you'r missing corss-env node module

try following

1. Delete node_modules folder from your project
2. Run this command npm install --global cross-env.
3. Delete "cross-env": "^5.0.1", from package.json file devDependencies section.
4. Run npm install --no-bin-links
5. Now run npm run dev
