          Only thing on the right side that doesn’t need to be quoted is true/false, or a number

            Also, typically the words used to the left don’t need to be quoted

            module: "somestring",
            config:{
               Something: true,
               something_Else: "some string"
            }
            

            All words on the left are case sensitive

                So I went in this morning and made the corrections, but instead of the typical error, when I started MagicMirror it was black screen that had my mouse cursor on it. The code i used is:

                {
                  			"module": "MMM-awesome-alexa",
                  			"position": "bottom_bar",
                  			"config": {
                    				"wakeWord": "Alexa",
                    				"clientId": "amzn1.application-oa2-client.54a08c41875f4xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx",
                    				"clientSecret": "8ce8425cb89e02a7302a60d27d10b51d2f137d8fxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx",
                    				"deviceId": "MagicMirror_1"
                			  }

                  @stalker401 ok, open the developers window, ctrl-shift-i, select the console tab and scroll up to see any errors. Usually red text
