Trying to open application from a fresh electron-compile install fails

[thibmaek]

In my app I get the following error with grabbing the latest electron-prebuilt-compile version from npm ("electron-prebuilt-compile": "^4.0.0-beta.5") and "electron": "^3.0.6":

App threw an error during load

Commands:

$ npm install electron-prebuilt-compile --save-dev
$ npm start
> tsc
> electron ./dist/main.js

main.ts:

import { enableLiveReload } from 'electron-compile';

enableLiveReload();

let mainWindow: Electron.BrowserWindow;

const createWindow = () => {
  mainWindow = new BrowserWindow(windowConfig);
};

Typescript config:

{
  "compilerOptions": {
    "target": "es6",
    "module": "commonjs",
    "noImplicitAny": true,
    "sourceMap": true,
    "outDir": "dist",
    "baseUrl": ".",
    "paths": {
      "*": ["node_modules/*"]
    }
  },
  "include": [
    "src/**/*"
  ]
}

I'm getting this with the latest version.

I just started a brand new setup following the instructions on the website, got the same when doing

npm install -g electron-forge
electron-forge init my-new-project
electron-forge start
