Clojurified Electron

My attempt to recreate ClojureScript development workflow while developing desktop apps with electron.

What is currently included

• ClojureScript (init script and ui code)
• Figwheel for interactive development
• Reagent for UI
• Advanced compilation with externs inference in release compilation targets

Running it

npm install electron-prebuilt -g # install electron binaries

lein cooper                      # compile cljs and start figwheel
electron .                       # start electron from another terminal

Releasing

lein do clean, cljsbuild once frontend-release, cljsbuild once electron-release
electron . # start electron to test that everything works

After that you can follow distribution guide for the electron.

The easiest way to package an electron app is by using electron-packager:

npm install electron-packager -g                                            # install electron packager
electron-packager . HelloWorld --platform=darwin --arch=x64 --version=1.4.8 # package it!
