Electron

(damn that's a cool name)

What is electron?

  • the chromium v8 (js) engine
  • node.js
  • combined into an executable desktop app

Why electron?

  • Because it's a desktop app us front end guys can build incredibly easily that is cross platform and can be bundled up to run as a .exe (windows) or .app (OS X or macOS if you're me)
  • Everyone Loves Node

What did I do?

  • Put DLS into a desktop app
  • DUH!
  • You can run it with
    • start \\uShip-fs\share\bryson\DLS\DLS.exe

One Big Advantage to Note

  • In app upgrading
