# Google Chromecast app
[](https://travis-ci.org/annexare/Chromecast)
[](https://ci.appveyor.com/project/z-ax/Chromecast)
This is a very basic app that allows sending direct URL (not local file yet) from desktop to Google Chromecast.
Was implemented using:
- [Node.js](https://nodejs.org/en/), Atom [Electron](http://electron.atom.io/), [node-castv2-client](https://github.com/thibauts/node-castv2-client)
- Facebook [React](http://facebook.github.io/react/)
- The very basic components from [Material-UI](http://www.material-ui.com/#/) & [Flexbox Grid](http://flexboxgrid.com/)
- [Gulp](http://gulpjs.com/) task runner, [Babel](https://babeljs.io/)
Mainly, the project may showcase how this may work together.
## Environment
### Node
```
# local dependencies, may take some time
npm install
# launch via electron

gulp build
# build binaries, OS specific only
gulp build:osx
gulp build:win
# build front-end only
gulp build:ui
```
