How to install an electron app from it's repo?

While browsing for some WebGL games i came across this game, and was suprised to see on their discord that they would have a Linux client soon. So when i asked i was directed to: https://github.com/OnRushStudio/Venge-Client And told to clone the repo and run npm start inside it. Now we all love Deno right? So how can we use this using Deno instead of node? Please step-by-step instructions are welcome 😉

usually you install dependencies in Deno via deno install. That said it looks like this project has some github: dependencies which are not supported in Deno. As a workaround you can install them with npm like npm install and then use Deno for the rest.
