# electron-react-typescript

### A Boilerplate for an Easy Start with TypeScript, React, and Electron.

[![React](docs/img/react.png)](https://reactjs.org/)

[![Webpack](docs/img/webpack.png)](https://webpack.js.org/)

[![TypeScript](docs/img/ts.png)](https://www.typescriptlang.org/)

[![Electron](docs/img/electron.png)](https://electronjs.org/)

[![Redux](docs/img/redux.png)](https://redux.js.org/)

[![Jest](docs/img/jest.png)](https://facebook.github.io/jest/)

[Electron](https://electronjs.org/) application boilerplate based on [React](https://reactjs.org/), [Redux](https://redux.js.org/), and [Webpack](https://webpack.js.org/) for rapid application development using [TypeScript](https://www.typescriptlang.org/).

## Install

Clone the repository with Git:

```bash

git clone --depth=1 [email protected]:Robinfr/electron-react-typescript.git 

```

And then install the dependencies:

```bash

cd 

npm install

```

## Usage

Both processes have to be started **simultaneously** in different console tabs:

```bash

npm run start-renderer-dev

npm run start-main-dev

```

This will start the application with hot-reload so you can instantly start developing your application.

You can also run do the following to start both in a single process:

```bash

npm run start-dev

```

## Packaging

We use [Electron builder](https://www.electron.build/) to build and package the application. By default you can run the following to package for your current platform:

```bash

npm run dist

```

This will create a installer for your platform in the `releases` folder.

You can make builds for specific platforms (or multiple platforms) by using the options found [here](https://www.electron.build/cli). E.g. building for all platforms (Windows, Mac, Linux):

```bash

npm run dist -- -mwl

```

## Husky and Prettier

This project comes with both Husky and Prettier setup to ensure a consistent code style. 

To change the code style, you can change the configuration in `.prettierrc`. 

In case you want to get rid of this, you can removing the following from `package.json`:

1. Remove `precommit` from the `scripts` section

1. Remove the `lint-staged` section

1. Remove `lint-staged`, `prettier`, `eslint-config-prettier`, and `husky` from the `devDependencies`

Also remove all mentions of Prettier from the `extends` section in `.eslintrc.json`.

## About this project

This project was set up from scratch but is heavily influenced by the [Electron React Boilerplate project](https://github.com/chentsulin/electron-react-boilerplate) and [React Redux TypeScript guide](https://github.com/piotrwitek/react-redux-typescript-guide).
