generator-electron-react v1.2.2

Yeoman generator for Electron with React

A simple and clean boilerplate for Electron and react. It includes:

• State management with Redux
• Routing with React-Router v4
• React and Redux devtools for debugging
• Jest for testing
• .eslint for ESlint
• Webpack 2 for bundling
• Babel for compiling

Use with Yeoman generator

• If you haven't used Yeoman generator before: Go to this link: Yeoman. Trust me it's damn easy to install and helps a lot

• If you have yeoman installed already:

  npm install -g generator-electron-react
  yo electron-react

How to run the project

• To run in production mode:

  npm run prod

• To run in development with hot reloading, open two terminal. In the first terminal run

  ```bash
  npm run hot
  ```
  
  In the second terminal run 
  
  ```bash
  npm run dev
  ```
  
  The first commands creates a webpack dev server which will watch and reload the bundle as you edit and will it available at https://localhost:8080.
  The second command will run the electron app in development mode. So it will open up devtools with React and Redux devtools initialized.

• To run test:

  npm test

Ugh, I don't want to use Yeoman
