      @teandryk I too had this problem earlier today. I solved it by navigating to /node_modules/electron
      and run “sudo node install.js”. Have some patience - it took a loooong time. I ended up leaving it and went to do something else. When I got back half an hour later it was done and the mirror was running.

      Hope it helps. Good luck :-)

          @teandryk @arosenhave Hello, I have run into the same issue wanting to install the magic mirror² framework on my windows laptop to develop a module. Running sudo node install.js from my powershell or from a node.js prompt did nothing to solve my problem. As far as I gathered, the issue come from this 2 not-updated packages that MagicMiror is using : https://github.com/geedew/grunt-yamllint/blob/master/package.json and the one called grunt-eslint. Both did not update their package.json (and maybe code) as the grunt developpers asked : http://gruntjs.com/blog/2016-04-04-grunt-1.0.0-released#peer-dependencies . Here is a topic on a forum surrounding that updating issue. However I am uncertain about what to do right now to solve it since the raspeberry pi environment and a laptop are not similar.

            @poutr if you are running on Windows just type npm install in the main folder and you should be good to go (assuming you have node.js installed on your pc)

              @tosti007 Well, it’s the

              npm install 
              

              that failed. But updating npm solved the issue since I had npm version 2.x.x (I think, not sure since I did not save the command prompt before the update). From the grunt dev page, higher npm version only raises warning for lower version number requirements and does nothing for

              "grunt" : ">=version_number"
              

              Which is good.

              Forgot to report that the solution there worked when I tested https://forum.magicmirror.builders/topic/971/dependency-problems/6

              Thank you for responding promptly to my post !
