I'm working through the book Getting Started With Gulp (which was published in January 2015) but I realize that because development with Gulp is moving quite fast it may be slightly out of date already.

Here is my gulpfile:

// Modules & Plugins
var gulp = require('gulp');
var concat = require('gulp-concat');
var myth = require('gulp-myth');
var uglify = require('gulp-uglify'); // newly added
var jshint = require('gulp-jshint'); // newly added
var imagemin = require('gulp-imagemin');
// let's add two node.js modules:
var connect = require('connect');
// var serve = require('serve-static');
var browsersync = require('browser-sync');
var browserify = require('browserify');
var source = require('vinyl-source-stream');
var plumber = require('gulp-plumber');

// Tasks
// styles task
gulp.task('styles', function(){
    return gulp.src('app/css/*.css')
    // now we add our pipes:
        .pipe(plumber())
        .pipe(concat('all.css'))
        .pipe(myth())
        .pipe(gulp.dest('dist'));
});

// scripts task
gulp.task('scripts', function() {
    return gulp.src('app/js/*.js')
        .pipe(jshint())
        .pipe(jshint.reporter('default'))
        .pipe(concat('all.js'))
        .pipe(uglify())
        .pipe(gulp.dest('dist'));
});

// images task
gulp.task('images', function() {
    return gulp.src('app/img/*')
      .pipe(imagemin())
      .pipe(gulp.dest('dist/img'));
});

// browsersync Task:
gulp.task('browsersync', function(cb) {
    return browsersync({
      server: {
        baseDir:'./'
      }
    }, cb);
});

// browserify Task:
gulp.task('browserify', function() {
    return browserify('./app/js/app.js')
      .bundle()
      .pipe(source('bundle.js'))
      .pipe(gulp.dest('dist'));
});

// watch task:
gulp.task('watch', function() {
  gulp.watch('app/css/*.css',
   gulp.series('styles', browsersync.reload));
  gulp.watch('app/js/*.js',
   gulp.series('scripts', browsersync.reload));
  gulp.watch('app/img/*',
   gulp.series('images', browsersync.reload));
});

// Default Task
gulp.task('default', ['styles', 'scripts', 'images', 'browsersync', 'browserify', 'watch']);

EDIT: After changing the final gulp.task line, it runs but I still get the following error:

I'm reading the same book and found it extrange that it doesn't work. I noticed all you had to do was to update Gulp to 4.0

Why isn't it working

In order to accomplish the parallel and series feature from Gulp, you must install Gulp 4.0

How to install

Global installation

npm uninstall gulp -g
npm install gulpjs/gulp-cli#4.0 -g

or

yarn global add gulpjs/gulp.git#4.0

From within your project

npm uninstall gulp
npm install gulpjs/gulp.git#4.0 --save-dev

or

yarn add gulpjs/gulp.git#4.0

I also found a bunch of tutorials talking about the new features from Gulp 4.0

I'm assuming this is because the book was written with the upcoming features in mind. I think that sometimes it cannot be assumed that the project will move as fast. What I still don't understand is the difference between gulp.parallel and just passing an array.

http://fettblog.eu/gulp-4-parallel-and-series/

One more thing:

In gulp4 you must specify parallel/series for the watch task:

gulp.task('watch', function() {
    gulp.watch('app/css/*.css', gulp.parallel('styles'));
    gulp.watch('app/jss/*.js', gulp.parallel('scripts'));
    gulp.watch('app/img/*', gulp.parallel('images'));
})

I'm not sure where the gulp.parallel or gulp.series is coming from but you should be able to accomplish the same thing by changing your code to this:

// watch task:
gulp.task('watch', function() {
    gulp.watch('app/css/*.css', ['styles', browsersync.reload]);
    gulp.watch('app/js/*.js', ['scripts', browsersync.reload]);
    gulp.watch('app/img/*', ['images', browsersync.reload]);
});

gulp.task('default', ['styles', 'scripts', 'images', 'browsersync', 'browserify', 'watch']);

As far as I can tell .series and .parallel don't exist. Once I made those updates it works.

If you need to run tasks in series, I have had good luck with this module: https://github.com/OverZealous/run-sequence. You would change your watch task to this:

var runSequence = require('run-sequence');

// watch task:
gulp.task('watch', function() {
  gulp.watch('app/css/*.css', runSequence('styles', browsersync.reload));
  gulp.watch('app/js/*.js', runSequence('scripts', browsersync.reload));
  gulp.watch('app/img/*', runSequence('images', browsersync.reload));
});
