Thought I'd drop in my experience installing on centos 7 since it's not as common. The install guide was pretty well put together, and the commands for install seemed to work (yum and script execution). I ran into few problems. The first was chome-sandbox installed in node_modules. I had to run sudo chown root node_modules/electron/dist/chrome-sandbox and sudo chmod 4755 node_modules/electron/dist/chrome-sandbox. Not sure if there was something else I could have done to avoid that. The easiest problem was needing ffmpeg installed. I'm sure different installations have various missing libs depending on the centos installation options. This was just mine. :)
The last was more user error (I laughed at myself after I found it out) related and lack of understanding of how the electron app worked. When calling npm run electon, you need access to the system gui (duh). I was trying it from putty and the logs weren't entirely helpful besides showing a SIGABRT. I didn't try it, but I'm sure if I had setup an xserver it might have worked. Anyways, great job! I'm excited to see how this goes.
