      @samydp all you should have to do is change the language portion of your config.js from
      language: 'en', -> language: 'de',

      As for the rest of your modules, I recommend adding them one by one to your config.js file to make sure they work. If you get that electron.js error, it was on the module you just added.

                Maybe I’m missing something here, but it seems you try to run npm start from a remote shell. That does not work since it doesn’t know on which screen to start. Try: DISPLAY=:0 npm start

                  @MichMich Hi! I am running npm start directly on the pi, and I get the same exact error.

                    As an update to my situation, I was able to get mine working by installing electron dependencies.

                    sudo apt-get install libgtk2.0-0 libnotify4 libgconf2-4 libnss3

                    I am running a pi 3 with Jessie by the way.

                    FYI @MichMich @paviro

                      Interesting as I didn’t have to do that as a separate step. However, as I posted in a different thread yesterday, keeping the base software on your Raspberry Pi is important.

                      A Life? Cool! Where can I download one of those from?

                        Mhh maybe we should add those dependencies and/or apt-get upgrade to the installer script?

                        We're all stories in the end. Just make it a good one, eh?
