    Yep, open Terminal and edit there, or use an SSH client remotely. The config is a bit finicky I discovered. Try not to change the layout too much, like for example, in your pastes above, I see this:

    }, {
    

    … in between modules. While I don’t think that would cause a problem, it also wouldn’t surprise me if that’s tripping up the parser. Keep them on separate lines:

    },
    {

      Hi KirAsh4 -

      After walking back through this setup tutorial again (https://forum.magicmirror.builders/topic/236/complete-setup-tutorial/) I am happy to report that I am no longer getting the error message asking about setting up a config file. Instead I now arrive at a blank black screen, absent any copy or modules. Do you know what might be causing this to occur?

        Likely a bug recently discovered. Follow the instructions in the first post here to try the 'develop' branch:
