 app:
 
 ```sh
-npm install electron --save-dev [--save-exact]
+npm install electron --save-dev
 ```
 
-The `--save-exact` flag is recommended for Electron prior to version 2, as it does not follow semantic
-versioning. As of version 2.0.0, Electron follows semver, so you don't need `--save-exact` flag. For info on how to manage Electron versions in your apps, see
