Help to contributing

Hello :)

I want to help on this repo, but when i fork the repo and try to install dependencies isn't working...

I see nothing in contribute guide about this.

What version of nodejs is needed ?
What package manager is needed (npm / pnpm / yarn) ? there are no lock file it's normal ?

Thanks :)

I don't think it's quite strict to force you use a specific node or package management, based on readme, CodeceptJS requires Node.js version 12+ or later, and package management should be your prefer.

I'm agree with that :)

Hum i'm using pnpm and i'm facing issue with electron....

I'm using a macbook pro M1 ultra, maybe it's that
node v18.16.1
pnpm v8.5.0

https://github.com/electron/electron/releases/download/v2.0.18/electron-v2.0.18-darwin-arm64.zip is in 404

[Horsty80]

I've found, it's due to ARM architecture of M1...

More information here: https://www.electronjs.org/fr/blog/apple-silicon

I'll check if i get a solution about this

[kobenguyent]

may you try npm or yarn to see if that's also an issue

[Horsty80]

Yes i'll try later i'm going to work ^^ thanks for your help @kobenguyent

looks like the issue with pnpm @Horsty80

[Horsty80]

It's look exactly the same indeed, electron-v2.0.18-darwin-arm64.zip

[kobenguyent]

I think I found the issue, it's actually the nightmarejs which is using electron v2.0.18
