      The fail states it was looking for OS: Darwin when it wanted OS: Linux. At this point after 10-12 attempts I am wondering if the installation scripts are hacked, since Darwin is/was a version of Linux run on early Apple hardware pre-2012… I am following the instructions to the letter, as far as I can tell. What could I be doing wrong to make the installation of Electron seek Darwin instead of Linux? I’ve tried googling and installing Electron manually and am getting a similar result. NodeJs version is 10, which is recommended by the installer but which throws an error during install.
