White Screen on install on FlyWheel (host)

[jakilevy]

from a friend who doesn't use gitHub and just tried installing -

I am Using Local by Flywheel with PHP 7.0.3 and ngix I get it to install but I’m not seeing anything…the area is white. Not sure if I need to install differently or if I am missing something

How did you install the plugin? Did you install the npm dependencies and built the JS/css assets https://github.com/WordPress/gutenberg/blob/master/CONTRIBUTING.md#installing--building-the-plugin ?

sorry, no, I'll redo using those instructions, thanks

[youknowriad]

You're welcome. Closing for now, let me know if you have any trouble following the instructions.

I expect we should also upload zip files on the Releases tab once the beta plugin is made available.

@youknowriad I'm running into an error. Using MAMP on MacOS I have the cloned repository in wp-content/plugins and when I type run npm dev I get cross-env BABEL_ENV=default webpack --watch in the npm error log. I'm on node 7.9.0.

@eviolini Did you first enter npm install before running npm run dev? The documentation is not entirely clear here, but it would be required to install dependencies first.

If you're still running into issues, can you clarify whether you're running Windows, Mac, or other?

That worked and now I have Webpack is watching the files. I activated the plugin and all is good, thanks for the quick response.
