How to get notifications?

Answer 1

Maybe you are using gulp-notify instead of gulp-notify-growl. With gulp-notify-growl the code you are using seems to be working. Find the correct module and install it again. Even though gulp-notify-growl is deprecated, it still works.

Note that when Growls picks the gulp app, you can configure the forwarding with the Growl UI, which is easier!
