I started using Rider a few days back and I wanted to start using SCSS in my projects and compile them back to CSS, I was messing around with the File Watcher but i couldn't get it to work, I keep getting this message in my console when I turn show console to Always; Process finished with exit code 0, but i dont see any changes in my CSS file compared to my SCSS file.

In the link below you can see my File Watcher settings, I appreciate any help i get on this,

Thanks alot.

Rider File Watcher

I found the solution to my problem. For some reason, the following line was configured in 'Output paths to refresh':

$FileNameWithoutExtension$.css:$FileNameWithoutExtension$.css.map

Obviously, this means that the file watcher will not refresh .css or .css.map files. It should be empty in order for the compiler to update the .css file.

I hope others can use this answer to continue their work in the future.
