Officially provide commands:
# 克隆示例项目的仓库
$ git clone https://github.com/electron/electron-quick-start
# 进入这个仓库
$ cd electron-quick-start
# 安装依赖并运行
$ npm install && npm start
The last step of install will be slower. At this time, you need to set up a proxy:
npm config set registry=https://registry.npm.taobao.org/
npm config set ELECTRON_MIRROR=http://npm.taobao.org/mirrors/electron/
Executed again npm install && npm start
to quickly start the installation was successful.
