Im making a first App with Tutorial.
First installed Node.js on Win10
Then installed npm
Then created a folder for electron: C:electron-app
Then created a package.json: npm init -y
Then installed electron: npm install –save-dev electron
Then changed the package.json to this:

{
  "name": "electron-app",
  "version": "1.0.0",
  "main": "main.js",
  "scripts": {
    "start": "main.js"
  },
  "keywords": [],
  "author": "",
  "license": "ISC",
  "description": "",
  "devDependencies": {
    "electron": "^31.0.1"
  }
}

Then created a main.js (empty)

Then i tried to start: npm start

PS C:electron-app> npm start
npm error Missing script: "start"
npm error
npm error Did you mean one of these?
npm error   npm star # Mark your favorite packages
npm error   npm stars # View packages marked as favorites
npm error
npm error To see a list of scripts, run:
npm error   npm run

It should find the start script not, on electron quick start it says i can start it without any code in the main.js?

Need help 🙂
