Forgot to add: super excited for Beaker on Windows! thanks for your hard work! ๐Ÿ˜† ๐Ÿ‘

The Windows installer is 64-bit only, so I am trying building on 32-bit. Curious if Beaker is a 64-bit only app at the moment?

I dont actually know if we have any hard constraints requiring us to use 64 bit only. Probably not. I'll have to look into 32bit packaging (I might need another VM).

That error looks like a ES6 compatibility issue. Can you bump your node version to 7 or 8?

That error looks like a ES6 compatibility issue.

Ahh, I wondered about that when I saw the error at async. Updated to Node 8.8.1 and rebuilt.

Success! We have a successful build, and it's running now on 32-bit.

Good deal!

Shall I add a note to the build instructions that Beaker requires Node 8 to build? v8 goes LTS on Oct 31 so it will be the default LTS from that point on.

fwiw, it's building fine for me using npm 5.5.1

Glad it built ok! It's definitely inconsistent about what it breaks on.

I'll update the build instructions. It says 6+ right now and that's gotta
be 8 now

The windows installer exe (beaker-browser-setup-0.7.11.exe) on the site and on softpedia.com both are giving 64 bit windows required error on windows 7 32 bit. Please share a working 32 bit installer exe. I appreciate the cooperation of community members.
