Electron with React - Building a desktop applications with React and Electron

Is this setup works on actual production?

Thank you

yarn add electron concurrently wait-on cross-env Does not work for me after the initial install why

I'm having issues with mine. No matter what I do, react would always open on a new browser window.

Awesome tutorial, tyvm, I hope you didn't stop creating excellent videos like this.

Electron is slow

yarn is just stuck on wait-on tcp:3000 for me

Outdated.

Guys, if the electron app is not showing for you then it's probably because of "wait-on tcp:3000". For some reason wait-on is not finished once something on tcp:3000 happens, in our case our react app is built and shown.

You can remove "wait-on tcp:3000 && " part from electron:start and you will start showing the window, but it's gonna be blank for the time of react build. I don't know how to circumvent that.

I think you shoud "cd react-electron" before"yarn add concurrently wait-on cross-env"

fireship lookin ah video 💀💀💀💀💀

Sorry, I have a question, how can I do the build if the react application has a react router?

I was having problem to use -c.extraMetadata

I found a way to solve, in the package.json, add to the build properties the following:

"extraMetadata":{
"main":"build/index.js"
}


Another important thing: You dont need to put node_modules folder on files, as it is not needed to build.

Any git with the final code? Video links to the React-Electron starting point.

think this video was time dependent, and no longer works.

other general feedback:
skips parts of development process on video (results may vary)
uses @electron/remote with huge warning sign on it when viewing the npm page without discussion
best practice to not enable nodeIntegration without mentioning alternative
nice add format size function

Hello Justin window.require("path") not an function. how possible to fix that ?

well, doesnt open the window, maybe already outdated

after all following code, yarn runs perfect but the electron window dont open at all

People seem confused. This is not a tutorial.

uh..so what happens with the index.html that is created via CRA?
