Installation Failure

This aims to be a list of solutions for installation issues with this project:

1. Fix node-gyp issues:
   Follow the steps in https://github.com/nodejs/node-gyp#installation. You don't need to install node-gyp but make sure that you have the correct environment setup for your OS.

2. Test installation against latest yarn/node version

3. Fix Caching Issues

   rm -rf node_modules &&
   yarn cache clean &&
   yarn &&
   yarn electron-rebuild &&
   yarn dev
   

4. If you're on Windows, try using cmder

Debugging Release Builds

DEBUG_PROD=true yarn build && DEBUG_PROD=true yarn start

@TimothyLe Please be watchful with the wording. In such a OSS project, no one owes you anything.

Comment Lines 54 and 66 in main.development.js, repackage, and open devtools.

are those line numbers still correct?

[amilajack]

@barbalex thanks for letting me know. I just updated my comment to reflect those changes

The links to the lines miss the /app in https://github.com/chentsulin/electron-react-boilerplate/blob/master/app/main.development.js

So I've done the steps listed here and the interface of the calc actually appears, so there shouldn't be a problem with the server.
I've got errors related to thise shared libraries but I couldn't find anything on the issues that could help me out.

the error itself is path/to/node_modules/electron/dist/electron: error while loading shared libraries: libnss3.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
