I set up a Jade file watcher in the following way in WebStorm. However it does not produces any HTML files.

How is it possible to convert Jade file to HTML file with WebStorm 9.0.3?

You have specified a wrong path to Jade in a Program field. Do you have Jade installed globally? Please run 'npm install jade -g', then test jade in your system terminal by running 'jade <your jade file>.jade'. Then specify a path to installed jade script as a 'Program' in your file watcher
