cd path/of/your/choice
- Only once you need to
npm install
the get the dependencies (electron, menubar) npm start

###Compiling
npm build
should work and build this for OSX(64bit) in a /dist subdirectory but I did not test. Ensure you have electron-packager (v7.7.0+) available on your system or install it globally with npm install -g electron-packager
.
electron-packager . --platform=darwin --icon=Icon --arch=x64 --out=dist PreevApp
will compile to your machine. Look inside the dist
directory for PreevApp
.
I've uploaded a zipped version 0.0.1 of PreevApp to Dropbox.
###How to quit this thing?
Click on the menubar item so that the apps window is visible. Use the common shortcut for closing an app. (e.g. CMD+Q
on osX/macOS)
###Thank you's Kudos to @electron and @maxogden for his great menubar package - plus of course the people that built & maintain preev.com - you know who you are.
