I hate to suggest this, because I know I don't have the know how. #163

I always encounter this error when running projects. Can you help me solve it?

          I hate to suggest this, because I know I don't have the know how.

Could someone please make a 'deepnest for rookies' youtube video. Install and get it going. Other than being a 'handy' reference for reference, it might get some new blood into helping or at least keeping the project 'alive'.

I get all kinds of 'good ideas', but run out of steam before they are implemented.

Thx @kelyamany https://github.com/kelyamany those steps really helped; but for others trying same I can add more info

  1. Download Boost 1.62 and unpack it to C:/boost (note this must be same drive as the main code you're building; my code was on D so I needed to put at D:/boost)
  2. You need Python 2.7 (I got 2.7.18 because gyp(?) isn't compatible with Python 3)
  3. You need Visual Studio (or possibly the SDK; as @kelyamany https://github.com/kelyamany I had VS on the box already)
  4. npm install --target=1.4.3 --arch=x64 --dist-url= https://atom.io/download/atom-shell" (at least I couldn't find any 1.4.8)
  5. Run .\node_modules.bin\electron-rebuild.cmd
  6. Copy the contents of build/Release to minkowski/Release
  7. npm run start or electron .

That got me to a running application that executes the nest happily; unfortunately I have one bump - the preview graphic works fine but the view of the resultant nest doesn't show anything and it seems like the exported file isn't valid. Close but no cigar. Anyone got any advice to offer?

On another note I also came across https://github.com/fel88/DeepNestPort which is a more actively supported port in C#.
