truffle unbox pet-store seems to do nothing

Question

I am a beginner at Dapps. I decided to start from very basic. I tried the following command: truffle unbox pet-shop but the problem is nothing is happening. No error is prompted it just says downloading and that's it. It tried reinstalling truffle and I did twice, once as administrator.

Screenshot is attached

Answer 1

Try following this guide to get Truffle installed using Windows. https://davidburela.wordpress.com/2017/05/12/how-to-install-truffle-testrpc-on-ubuntu-or-windows-10-with-windows-subsystem-for-linux/ Let me know if this doesn't work.

Answer 2

I was facing the same issues. I also tried multiple other ways but nothing worked.

Fortunately, I found one GitHub repo similar to what you get after running truffle unbox pet shop. Also there is a node modules folder, so all the dependencies are already installed.

This may help people facing this issue. You can clone or download this repo.
