Original GitHub issue: https://github.com/electerm/electerm/issues/1072

Electerm version: 0.26.13

Also tested with:
commit 20547ca08e (HEAD -> master, origin/master, origin/HEAD)
Author: ZHAO Xudong zxdong@gmail.com
Date: Fri Jan 11 15:14:18 2019 +0800

Operating system(linux, macos, or windows7/8/10?): linux, gentoo, stable, xfce4

Expected Behavior

I downloaded the 0.26.13 release, unpacked it, started.
I expected to see a main window.

Current Behavior

I started the application and saw only a task on my taskbar but not the main application window.
As I understood the main windows existed (elements existed either - I saw a mouse cursor changes when I moved it over possible position of the main window) but the window was 100% transparent (I did not think that it was "HTML opacity 0").

Then I cloned current git with commit 20547ca08e and started it in developer mode:

git clone git@github.com:electerm/electerm.git
cd electerm
npm i

# start webpack dev server
npm start

# in a separate terminal session run app
npm run app

I saw the main window with a debug console. Everything was OK.
Then I tried to build the application from git sources.
The build was successful but "release" version had the same problem with UI.

Thank you for your work. I will be happy to help you, if I can.
