This is meant as a starting point to writing an Electron application using TypeScript. Clone it, and you can start writing TypeScript
Here's what it handles for you:
- npm package configuration in package.json which installs all dependencies (dev & production) with
npm install. - bare-bones hello-world interface showing Node access in Electron.
Note: This branch now uses TypeScript 2.0, which can make use of type definition
files in the npm @types namespace automatically. If you want to stick with
TypeScript 1.8, see the typescript-1.8 branch.
- Clone the repo.
npm installnpm start
- Delete this README.md and replace it with your own.
- Update package.json with your application name, version, and author.
npm start assumes you've already compiled your TypeScript files into javascript.
If you're using an IDE that supports the compileOnSave option in tsconfig.json,
then that should all happen automatically. Otherwise, run tsc -w to auto-build.
- npm scripts for building distributable apps.
- Better Electron sample code. (Meanwhile, see: electron-quick-start)
