MagicMirror V2

This version of the Magic Mirror software focusses on a modular plugin system. Besides that, the Magic Mirror software now also uses Electron, so no more webserver or browser installs necessary.

#WARNING: THIS VERSION IS IN A VERY EARLY STAGE. IT IS NOT COMPLETED YET. PLEASE USE THE MASTER BRANCH.

1. Download the latest node version: wget https://nodejs.org/dist/latest/node-v5.10.0-linux-armv6l.tar.gz for Pi 1 wget https://nodejs.org/dist/latest/node-v5.10.0-linux-armv7l.tar.gz for Pi 2
2. Unpack file tar -xvf filename
3. Install cd foldername && sudo cp -R * /usr/local/
4. Set loglevel npm config set loglevel info

2. Modify your required settings.
