tlmgr gui using electron and react

electron-es6-react

A simple boilerplate app to demonstrate how to use ES6 and React with Electron. It uses Babel to automatically transpile ES6 and JSX code, without depending on any package manager besides npm.

How?

The Node and Electron binaries both take a parameter -r that automatically requires a module before the rest of the code. The npm start script is modified using this, which registers Babel and loads the entry point main.js.

The renderer entry point index.html does basically the same, but loads the scripts/main.js file, which renders the views/main.jsx component into the body.

Installation

git clone https://github.com/b52/electron-es6-react.git
cd electron-es6-react
npm install
npm start
