followed tutorial; .next or .out not created

[karadahl]

Hello, I've run npx flowershow@latest export and I see that a .contentlayer folder is created inside .flowershow, but not a .next or .out folder. I've also tried flowershow@latest build. Did I miss a step somewhere? The preview doesn't work either.

Hello, @karadahl! Thanks for reporting that! Can you please share the errors you're getting?

[karadahl]

If the markdown files are empty, everything works fine. If there is text, even just the word "test" in index.md (or any other .md) then the export (or preview) stops right after contentlayer build, with no error whatsoever.

Hi, thanks for responding so quickly. There are no errors that I can tell. The preview (in browser) gives "connection refused" which I expect since the preview returned me to the command line.

@karadahl we are looking at this and trying to figure out the issue. Do keep us posted if you make any progress.

@karadahl can you please try re-installing Flowershow template with npx flowershow@latest install and run preview and/or export commands again?

[karadahl]

that worked. thank you!

Hey, I'm having this issue also. Neither 'preview' or 'export' works, and there are no error or success messages given in Terminal. Using latest versions of Node, Mac OS X, Obsidian, and Flowershow. Have tried reinstalling but that didn't work for me.
