    I am not using a browser to run MagicMirror.
    I run it through terminal and “npm start” to run it.

    Not sure if that helps

      @MadeInMaine when u do npm start , it starts the MagicMirror app, which displays thru a browser (electron by default)

      the black background is electron …

      on that screen, press ctrl-shift-i on the keyboard
      and a second panel will open, the browser developers window
      (just like on Windows, anything built on Firefox or Chrome)

        Looks like electron as it does not look like standard browser.

                Do you know why it would say “site can’t be reached” when doing http://localhost:8888 ?

                I tried to go to proxy settings, but couldn’t change anything

                  @MadeInMaine there are two choices

                  1. you are doing that on a browser on a machine different than where MagicMirror is installed

                  2. you didn’t start the auth app per the documentation, before you tried to connect to it, from a browser on the same system

                    For #2, I’ll start over from scratch, maybe that will help.

                    For #1, i am using the browser that that opens from the status bar on the RaspberryPi, chromium.
                    Can i use the electron browser? If so, and if I should be using that, where do I find it on the rapsberryPi?

                    Thank you again

                      @MadeInMaine you don’t need to try to use electron.

                      when you start the auth app you should see
