Ionic setup sass [ERROR] Unable to find command: setup sass

I meant npm install -g ionic

I think you misunderstand something

with

npm install -g ionic

you will install the CLI (the tools, the cmd lines etc) which helps you compile or create project for example

with

ionic start myproject --type ionic1

you will create a ionic project app. in this project it is specified which version of Ionic you will use, in case you use --type ionic1 respectively Ionic version 1
