Unknown command: dev

What happened?

1 Updated global quasar CLI via npm 2. Created new project with default settings (but added axios, i18n, and state support) 3. See https://www.loom.com/share/945748d99f8a4083afd3451dd21b45a6 for the video 4. cd quasar-project 5. quasar mode add electron 6. Got the usual “Unknown command “mode”” error

What did you expect to happen?

Electron mode should be added. App should be runnable.

One thing I noticed - i have quasar.config.js , not quasar.conf.js - has this changed recently?

Fixed it:

I must have had a stray yarn global @quasar/cli floating about

Ran “yarn global remove @quasar/cli” and now quasar info is showing v1.3.2, the latest one, and quasar mode add electron works.

[ap1969]

I ran “npm uninstall -g @quasar/cli” , but “quasar serve” still runs
