Could this be a permission issue? I'll give it a try on my Ubuntu VM and see if I can reproduce it. It looks like it was an issue with the hotkeys plugin, maybe I'll also just include it instead of installing it with NPM.

Thank you again for reporting the issue. I could reproduce it on my Ubuntu machine and change the frontend to include the module that caused the error instead of trying to install it. It worked for me now.

Please run npm cache clean and try installing again :)

Ran great thanks a lot!
