Concurrently not running with single quotes

[virtual]

I had an issue with running the concurrently commands using single quotes and had to replace them with \" instead. I hope this helps someone else who might be having a similar issue.

eg:
"watch": "concurrently --names \"API,UI\" -c \"bgBlue,bgMagenta\" \"npm run watch:api\" \"npm run watch:ui\"",

Example of error:

['API] 'np' is not recognized as an internal or external command,
['API] operable program or batch file.
[UI'] 'run' is not recognized as an internal or external command,
[UI'] operable program or batch file.

Thanks, this helped me as well. For some reason single quotes work only in WSL(ubuntu), but on regular windows, I had to change the command to use escaped-double-quotes like you did.
