what’s the version of electron you use? i’m confused because i don’t know which steps can make it work. 1. [https://developer.zoom.us/docs/electron-framework/install/](https://developer.zoom.us/docs/electron-framework/install/) this seems old. 2. [https://github.com/zoom/zoom-macsdk-electron](https://github.com/zoom/zoom-macsdk-electron) step 3:Get Electron release package and unzip. Rename package\_mac.json to package.json in lib folder. thers is no package\_mac.json file in lib folder,and what’s Electron release package mean?i use npm install electron. thanks for your patience! ---

1. [https://github.com/zoom/zoom-macsdk-electron](https://github.com/zoom/zoom-macsdk-electron), follow the step at this. 2. Electron release package means the released zoom-macsdk-electron package. The package\_mac.json file is in the zoom-macsdk-electron lib folder. ---
