I'm new to Electron. Just trying it out today, to port a simple single-page app I have in CoffeeScript to it.

To debug something I tried console.log but nothing appears in the terminal that I launch the app. from. Is there a way to write to the terminal from inside node.js / electron?

I'm running the program with

npm start

which I guess is a wrapper for

./node_modules/.bin/electron .

But I'm guessing both suppress writing to stdout. (In node itself console.log seems to write to stdout)

Have you seen [this](http://stackoverflow.com/q/31759367/5647260)? Might help. – Andrew Li Sep 27 '16 at 23:53
OK. I see what the issue is. Is there a library or something that can (even from inside the "browser" part of the app) write to the console? – interstar Sep 28 '16 at 00:32
