Can't get started

[ericdmoore]

I was looking for a NodeGUI example to :

1. see the finished project
2. then look at the bones and architecture

Steps to reproduce:

1. I have cloned the repo
2. i cd in to the new dir and npm i
3. Then the install explodes

Then the Problem Report for Python dialog box opens

After that the npm dialog shows:

I am going to bump the version of @nodegui - and see what happens.

[ericdmoore]

When I do a npm upgrade @nodegui/nodegui the python crash dialog shows up ... moving this thread to the nodegui repo for isssue tracking. will report back with root cause.

[ericdmoore]

root cause was that my symlink for the python3 bash command was broken.

[ericdmoore]

Ehh - not so fast - qode seems to hold the issue now.

I bumped everything in package json and it works now.
Can you try agian ?
