Only works on Mac - Not Windows

Open Nantris opened this issue 7 years ago • 2 comments

Currently this only works on Mac as far as I can tell.

  • Mac: Works with Node 8.11.4 || 10.9.0
  • Windows: Doesn't work with Node 8.11.4 || 10.9.0
  • Linux: Doesn't work with Node 8.11.4 || 10.9.0

This is one of the coolest projects I've seen in a while. If you have any thoughts on how to make this work on Windows and Linux I'd love to hear!

Would love to know this as well! @jdiamond I think this project is great and have been thinking about using it for an electron app communicating with a chrome extension, but read through some of @Slapbox issues and was wondering if you have any idea why it might not work on Windows/Linux?

@kodezen, I forget exactly, but Electron itself I never got working on Windows. It's something to do with how Windows handles STDIO

I forget why this example doesn't work on Linux out of box.
