Just completed install and giving a try. After completing generation process, I execute npm run dev as documented. I can debug this further this evening, but figured I would let you know of immediate issues

  % npm run dev                                                                                                                                                                                                                       !4941

Hi @mikeerickson it's probably because you are not using a nodeJS version >= 6.3. You can either dowload and install it on your machine, following this link. Or you can use this really useful tool to manage the nodeJS version, in case you still want to have your current version available.

Ya, using 5.9.1 didn't see that in docs but probs just overlooked

Might wanna put an OS check and exit gracefully w/ message of such.

Good idea @mikeerickson, I will look to implement that in the future 👍
