This jailbreak comes as a toolkit for tweak and theme developers in target iOS 11.1.2 to 11 devices. And it seems given to the developer's community in prioritizing testing iOS 11 compatibility packages.

It is better to call Electra download a "toolkit for tweak developers" rather than another jailbreak. Since it lacks functional Cydia and Substrate and some more from a usual jailbreak, it does not come in the folder of full jailbreak from which we hope for an immediate benefit for the jailbreaker's community. So it is dedicated strictly to the developers and creators of themes/ tweaks to make use in the way of more testing on the 11th iOS update.
Step 01: Download Electra ipa latest version and Cydia impactor from above download links
Step 02: Connect your iPhone, iPad or iPod touch device to Mac, Linux or Windows PC using a certified USB lightning cable
Step 03: Now, open Cydia impactor on your computer then the tool will automatically identify your iDevice
Step 04: Then, drag Electra jailbreak ipa file and drop it onto the impactor's user interface
Step 05: Enter a valid Apple ID and password to go ahead and the impactor tool will sideload the jailbreak ipa on your iDevice
Step 06: Once the download Electra was successfully finished, open Settings and go to General > Profile & Device Management

And once you continued to "jailbreak", the device will be given the pre-installed set of tools as Anemone, Preference Loader, libsubstitute, SSH, SFTP, SCP, and GNU as the utilities for many of the developers and tweak creators to get in their objectives.
If you have been sticking to iOS 11.1.2 - 11, this comes adding cheers. So stay tuned to know how Electra Jailbreak download going to come up in the times ahead with the contribution to tweaks and apps.
