What am I doing wrong?

Having the same problem as of now.

[BryanEnid]

same

[BryanEnid]

This also fails (per documentation):

git clone https://github.com/Seo-Rii/electron-acrylic-window.git
cd electron-acrylic-window
yarn install
yarn run test

[BryanEnid]

Now it's working after installing Python 3.10.5.

1. Download it from here https://www.python.org/
2. Go through the entire install process and don't forget to add the option of adding python in the environment variables.
3. Check python is installed by opening a new terminal and typing python --version
4. Try ```yarn install electron-acrylic-window" again.

If the above doesn't work for anyone I would recommend the package Glasstron which is essentially the same as electron-acrylic-window.
