Can't install laravel-elixir because of node-sass failure – CPanel

I am pretty new to this environment still and am trying to get up to speed on node.js modules and Laravel (5.1.11) as a whole, so…

I have a fresh install of Laravel implemented by the cPanel Installitron. I’m using PHPStorm to install all of the node modules via the provided package.json:

package.json

{
  "private": true,
  "devDependencies": {
    "gulp": "^3.8.8"
  },
  "dependencies": {
    "laravel-elixir": "^3.0.0",
    "bootstrap-sass": "^3.0.0"
  }
}

The error I get when I run the install is:

Cannot download "https://github.com/sass/node-sass/releases/download/v3.13.1/win32-x64-57_binding.node": 

HTTP error 404 Not Found

I can understand why this would happen, seeing as that is an older version of node-sass, but how do I know what newer versions are compatible with the requested version of laravel-elixir? I didn’t want to just install a newer version of node-sass because digging a deeper hole would make it harder for me to find a solution to my problem. What is the fix for this?

    It looks like you can fix this by installing Windows Build Tools via this command:

    npm install --global --production windows-build-tools

    Then delete the project's node_modules folder and re-run npm install.
