ElectroHacker

A personal test to start making something with Electron

This is a working progress Electron application that serve as HackerNews client.

Dev Requirements

• Electron
• Gulp for Less style processing
• Node and NPM

To run the app

npm install
npm run start

To Build the app

the build script supports MacOS, Linux and Windows

To create the packaged application on MacOS run

npm run build-osx

while on Windows run

npm run build-win-on-win

sounds scary, but build-windows is reserved for building the Windows bundle using a Continuos Integration on a bash shell. Everything depends on the variable expansion of the command prompt and the shell.
