Cannot launch p5js
Hi all, I downloaded P5js from here https://p5js.org/download/
I am using Windows-10 64-bit, OS. I downloaded the Windows P5js Editor and tried launching it. But, a wait courser appears and then nothing happens. I am not able to launch the exe file. I have tried changing the directory and also tried using the default windows zipper, but nothing seemed to work.
Please help me get started.

The p5js-editor has some bugs and will not be fixed. Because the people developing p5js have decided to make a web editor instead, that will make starting with p5js easier and solve the common problem of installation, but it isn't ready yet.
The p5js-website has a nice introduction on how to use p5js with a regular text/code-editor like Sublime, Atom or similar: p5js.org/get-started.
You also have the option of using the Processing editor, that you can download from here: processing.org and install the "p5js mode", but following the instructions mentioned above is as far as I know the recommended way to go at the moment.
Thanks doxanthropos
