How to build

Requirements: node.js with npm.

1. Clone this repository and install all project dependencies with:

   $ npm install
   

2. To build the application on your local machine use one of the following commands:

   # linux
   $ npm run electron:build:linux
   

   #mac
   $ npm run electron:build:mac
   

   # windows
   $ npm run electron:build:windows
   

This command will produce the distributable assets in the release folder based on the configuration from electron-builder which is stored in electron-builder.json and package.json. Check the API description of electron-builder and adapt the configuration if you need some special configuration for you environment.

Note: Don’t expect that you can build app for all platforms on one platform. Read details

Development

The first thing to do is to install all the necessary dependencies:

$ npm install

To develop an application in PWA and Electron mode, you need to run the application with a command:

$ npm run start

The Electron version of the application will open in a separate window, and the PWA version will be available in the browser at http://localhost:4200.

If you want to run only the angular app without electron, in this case you can use the command:

$ npm run ng:serve
