@0m4r when am running in the server its working but when am try to run in the local its not working
-
@chethan what is the Os you have installed it on? it it is the “lite” version it will not work. Electron requires a GUI interface to run
-
@0m4r raspberry pi 4
-
@chethan yeah, thanks, but what operating system?
-
i dont know what is the software that is being fresher in this
-
@chethan are u running in desktop mode, or text mode command prompt.
must be desktop mode, electron requires graphics mode
