Electron window doesn't open but doesn't show any errors
Jeff
Context: I 've seen this question, but it doesn't solve my problem.
When I try to run my electron app, I don't get any errors and it seems to compile, but the electron window doesn't pop up.

^ Seems to be a perfectly normal reaction
After a while, it exits without any error code.
Main file:
const { app, BrowserWindow } = require ('electron')
let win;
function createWindow() {
//Create the browser window
win = new BrowserWindow({
width: 600,
height: 600,
backgroundColor: '#ffffff',
//icon: 'file:///' + __dirname + '/dist/assets/favicon.ico'
})
win.loadURL('file:///' + __dirname + '/index.html')
win.on('close', function() {
win = null
})
}
// Create window on electron intialization
app.on('ready', createWindow)
//Quit when all windows are closed
app.on('window-all-closed', function(){
// On macOS specific close process
if(process.platform !== 'darwin'){
app.quit()
}
})
app.on('activate', function(){
//macOS specific close process
if(win === null){
createWindow()
}
})
