    I have been fighting some crashes for a while, but using the dev window doesn’t help. it dies when Electron dies…

    I found this logger, and it has helped a LOT…

    thought others would be interested…

    you put the javascript in a file (I used js/logger.js)
    and then add the two lines to the index.html file (change the path/name of the logger.js file to match what you do)

    the log file will be in ~/.config/Electron/logs
    (note the leading dot on config)

      So can we implement it into the code for all to use? What do you think?

        @lavolp3 one could submit a PR to include it… wouldn’t want it on all the time, as it will eat up disk space…

        MMM-Logging does similar , but always failed for me when the debugger failed…

          @sdetweil Well, there should be a way to clear the log output once in a while!?
          I’ll test it as well…

            @lavolp3 one could just erase the files… its just a lot to learn for the newer folks, who are already swamped…
