      Scroll back to the info in the terminal till you see the npm start command you made to run the mirror. Copy everything after that and paste here

        Put a tick before you paste it and at the end of the paste. The tick is your TILDE key (without shift)

            for future people who stumble here:
            “npm start” was what I was missing to get things started up

            I had a weird black electron pop up - realized it was a config file issue - for mine it ended up being a random address in the “address” section above the ipwhite list.

            Thanks to Mykle for the help!
