Getting Started with Create React App

This project was bootstrapped with Create React App.

Available Scripts

In the project directory, you can run:

npm start

Runs the app in the development mode.
Open http://localhost:3000 to view it in your browser.

The page will reload when you make changes.
You may also see any lint errors in the console.

npm test

Launches the test runner in the interactive watch mode.
See the section about running tests for more information.

npm run build

Builds the app for production to the build folder.
It correctly bundles React in production mode and optimizes the build for the best performance.

The build is minified and the filenames include the hashes.
Your app is ready to be deployed!

See the section about deployment for more information.

npm run eject

Note: this is a one-way operation. Once you eject, you can't go back!

If you aren't satisfied with the build tool and configuration choices, you can eject at any time. This command will remove the single build dependency from your project.

Instead, it will copy all the configuration files and the transitive dependencies (webpack, Babel, ESLint, etc) right into your project so you have full control over them. All of the commands except eject will still work, but they will point to the copied scripts so you can tweak them. At this point you're on your own.

You don't have to ever use eject. The curated feature set is suitable for small and middle deployments, and you shouldn't feel obligated to use this feature. However we understand that this tool wouldn't be useful if you couldn't customize it when you are ready for it.

Set up an electron-react-project for native desktop applications

based on:

Follow these steps to set up a new electron-react-app-project:

project setup

  • clone this repo
  • create a directory with a nice project name
  • copy all contents of this repo to the new directory
  • open your new project with an IDE
  • in package.json modify names, descriptions, categories and so on to match your project
  • in resources replace all icons by new ones, suitable for your app

Push the project to gitHub

  • Go to gitHub and create a new repository (empty)
  • Open a terminal and run following commands
    git init
    git add .
    git commit -m "initial commit"
    git remote add origin <repository-url>
    git branch -M main
    git push -u origin main
    

setup snap

  • Go to your snaps and register a nice snap name
    The snap has to match the name defined in package.json
  • Open a terminal and run following command
    snapcraft export-login --snaps <snap-name> -
    This will generate a macaroon token (base64-encoded).
    Copy it
  • Go to gitHub, to your repository
  • Go to Settings->Secrets->Actions
  • Click New repository secret
  • Paste the copied base64-encoded token
  • Give the token the name snapcraft_token

Release/Build

Simply execute the triggerRelease.sh
This will create an empty commit with message of the last commit,
tag it with the version, defined in package.json
and execute git push && git push --tags.
This will trigger the gitHub action, to build the application binaries,
push them to a new gitHub release and push the created snap file to snapcraft

Important

  • The version, defined in package.json have to match the semantic versioning naming conventions.
    Examples of allowed versions:
    • 1.2.3
    • 4.5.6-alpha.7
    • 8.9.10-beta.11
    • 12.13.14-rc15
  • Before you can release the same version again, you have to delete the gitHub release for this version
  • The name, defined in package.json should never contain underscores, dashes or spaces
