              cd electron-quick-start
              npm install

                If you are running on a Pi then you have Raspbian installed so you have a file browser.
                go to the MagicMirror folder and delete the node_modules directory and try reinstalling the mirror in a terminal window …

                In the terminal window in the MagicMirror folder type:

                npm install

                    Make sure you have the API key and the Location and Location ID in the config.js file.
