# esri-loader-electron
A fork of [electron-quick-start](https://github.com/electron/electron-quick-start) that demonstrates how to use [esri-loader](https://github.com/Esri/esri-loader) in an electron application.
## Adding esri-loader to an Electron Application
To add esri-loader to your own electron application, all you need to do is:
1. Install esri-loader w/ `npm install esri-loader`
1. Add a [container for the map or scene view](./index.html#L13-L14).
1. Add the code to load and use esri modules to [your JavaScript](./renderer.js)
See the esri-loader documentation for more information on [how to use esri-loader](https://github.com/Esri/esri-loader#usage).
The following comes from the electron-quick-start README:
## Electron Quick Start
**Clone and run for a quick way to see Electron in action.**
This is a minimal Electron application based on the [Quick Start Guide](https://electronjs.org/docs/tutorial/quick-start) within the Electron documentation.
**Use this app along with the [Electron API Demos](https://electronjs.org/#get-started) app for API code examples to help you get started.**
A basic Electron application needs just these files:
- `package.json` - Points to the app's main file and lists its details and dependencies.
- `main.js` - Starts the app and creates a browser window to render HTML. This is the app's **main process**.
- `index.html` - A web page to render. This is the app's **renderer process**.
You can learn more about each of these components within the [Quick Start Guide](https://electronjs.org/docs/tutorial/quick-start).
## To Use
To clone and run this repository you'll need [Git](https://git-scm.com) and [Node.js](https://nodejs.org/en/download/) (which comes with [npm](http://npmjs.com)) installed on your computer. From your command line:
```bash
# Clone this repository
git clone https://github.com/electron/esri-loader-electron
# Go into the repository
cd esri-loader-electron
# Install dependencies
npm install
# Run the app
npm start
```
Note: If you're using Linux Bash for Windows, [see this guide](https://www.howtogeek.com/261575/how-to-run-graphical-linux-desktop-applications-from-windows-10s-bash-shell/) or use `node` from the command prompt.
