}

after install, run wljs-frontend, it will

Error launching app
Unable to find Electron app at /opt/wolfram-js-frontend-bin/resources/app

Cannot find module '/opt/wolfram-js-frontend-bin/resources/app'
Require stack:
- /usr/lib/electron25/resources/default_app.asar/main.js

so stuck

Hello,

  • at the moment this is a disguised -bin pkgbuild and the program is open source, you can both re-upload with -bin suffix and correct this pkgbuild to build from source but this can't stay as it is now

Attempting to extract Electron from the package can have unintended consequences, as evidenced by the error message "Error: EACCES: permission denied, open 'opt/WLJS Notebook/resources/app/pkg.zip'".
