Additional Information

Tried to search here that has same issue as this but I'm unable to see or i can't seem to understand it as a direct relation to this concern i got. Total newbie here and has been school project told to try this out as it was said to be stable (condition on the project is not to use react or other known frameworks but simple bootstrap oriented pages and use of some electron modals). But tried workout like installing @types/node on devDependencies but to no avail.

EDIT: tried installing @types/node version 12.12.6 on devDependencies then npm run start, it works, tried to uninstall it and then npm run start, it still works even without dependencies, i even deleted the produced dist folder and tried running again and it now works. Though i don't know if this continues to work after progressing to development. its quite weird so i guess contributors or other can look into this, i have no exact idea how this works.
