Electron Boilerplate

A simple boilerplate for electron apps.

Build Setup

# install dependencies
$ npm install

# launch electron and dev-server at localhost:8080 for renderer process
# * electron app will automatically restart when main.js or preload.js is changed
# * renderer process supports HMR
$ npm run dev

# build electron app for production
$ npm run build

TODO

• Secure configuration
  • Disalble nodeIntegration
  • Enable contextIsolation
• IPC example
• HMR for renderer process
• HMR for main process
• Auto restart electron app (instead of HMR for main process)
• Open DevTools(press F12, development build only)
• React template
• Vue template
• TypeScript template
