      How are you installing? Manually? Using the install script?

        @cowboysdude Well on a fresh rasbian stretch R Pi 3 B+, I typed this in the terminal:
        curl -sL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/MichMich/MagicMirror/master/installers/raspberry.sh | bash

        And then it runs that install until the line
        “unable to install dependencies!”

        Hmmm I’m not sure if you can see the pic I uploaded in my post (it’s not showing up when i look at my post), but it right click in the blank spot on my original post, below the word ‘But’ and above the word ‘Any’ you can open the image in a new tab to see everything I did and where I get stuck

            @dæmoneyes said in Stuck at Unable to install dependencies!:

            fresh rasbian stretch

            yes, stretch doesn’t install npm or node, which are required…

              @sdetweil Thanks! I’ve installed nodejs and npm according to that.
              Now do I try installing MagicMirror with that curl script again?

                @dæmoneyes yes… best to erase the MM folder and start again

                cd ~
                rm -rf MagicMirror
                

                then run the install script again

                what versions of node and npm were installed

                node -v
                

                and

                npm -v
