        I used a Raspberry pi 2 with a fresh install of Raspbian Jessie and I followed the step by step tutorial (https://forum.magicmirror.builders/topic/236/complete-setup-tutorial)

          I believe @paviro is the Electron God around here. But he’s busy with school at the moment so it may be a bit before he responds.

          A Life? Cool! Where can I download one of those from?

              as I c, you’ve installed your MagicMirror in the /root directory.
              I’m not sure if this is working so far.

              Try to install everything as pi and not as root in the /home/pi directory and let us know what happend.

              try whoami -> pi

              update your distribution with sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade

              then cd /home/pi or only cd

              and install again: curl -sL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/MichMich/MagicMirror/master/installers/raspberry.sh | bash
