If you're having an issue installing Electron, this is the place to report it.

If you're having an issue using Electron, please report it at https://github.com/electron/electron/issues

  • Electron version: 1.8.3
  • Operating system: Mac Os High Sierra

When installing electron for a project (npm install --save-dev electron), it downloads packages and creates the corresponding server but, afterwards, I try to launch it with "electron ." and it says it is not installed.

Not sure if this issue is active, but I happened across it and thought I'd offer my $0.02. When you run electron . you're using whatever electron executable is in your path. When you install with npm install --save-dev electron it is getting put into node_modules. Is ./node_modules/.bin in your path? What happens if you try to run node_modules/.bin/electron . or if you do npm install -g electron (to install globally, which presumably will be included in your environment's path) then re-run as before?
