Do a “npm install” before and it should work.

I’m also having the same problem with the command

gridsome develop

Output:

Unknown command develop


Usage: gridsome <command> [options]

Options:
  -v, --version            output the version number
  -h, --help               output usage information

Commands:
  create <name> [starter]  create a new website
  info                     output information about the local environment

  Run gridsome <command> --help for detailed usage of given command.

I also ran npm install in the correct directory, this didn’t help either. 😞

Version:

gridsome --version
@gridsome/cli v0.3.4
