Puppeteer not launching chromium in Mac 10.14

Question

I am trying to open a page through puppeteer but it's not throwing any error and entire code is getting executed by chromium doesn't show up.

const puppeteer = require('puppeteer');

(async () => {
const browser = await puppeteer.launch();
const page = await browser.newPage();
console.log('there');
await page.goto('https://google.com');
console.log('yes');
//   await page.screenshot({path: 'example.png'});

//   await browser.close();
})();

const browser = await puppeteer.launch({headless: false}); – Sayed Mohd Ali Nov 19 '18 at 07:45 — Sayed Mohd Ali, Nov 19 '18 at 07:45

Quote from the Puppeteer documentation:

Puppeteer launches Chromium in headless mode. To launch a full version of Chromium, set the 'headless' option when launching a browser:

const browser = await puppeteer.launch({headless: false}); // default is true

“Headless” means when your code is executed, you won't actually see any browser window, the code is run in the browser purely on the command line.
