# desktop-app-runner
Useful to run desktop apps based on node-webkit. For Linux and Windows.
## Installation
Download and unzip the package manually from megaupload (github does not allow such size of files):
```sh
https://mega.nz/file/p2sxyCaI#G5HR7zL4KnvybyiRcWYdl2caS8CuL_W8irT6GUav1CE
```
## Usage
Uncompress the file (`tar.gz` format) and once inside...
a) In Linux, double-click or:
```sh
./run-linux.sh
```
b) And in Windows, double-click or:
```sh
run-windows.bat
```
## Development
The app is placed in `src`.
From there, you develop in `html` but having access to all `node.js` modules from browser-side javascript.
## Advantages
It comes with a `node` and `npm` executables already, so *you do not need to download anything*.
Also, it comes with the `nw` executable too, so *you don't need to download anything else*.
