electricShine VS Atom

You can use electricShine to turn a shiny app into a simple .exe installable. BUT, the project is dormant - you can get it working but you need to pay attention to the most recent issues and install particular commits.

I’ve had some joy with electricShine. Albeit, last time I tried I had to use a specific commit and ignore some of the documentation (it suggests using a golem style app but that package has moved on and it’s no longer compatible).

If you want something totally self contained that someone can install like a “normal” program, then try electricShine. I’ve had good success with this but some people struggle so, if it’s a route you want to go, give me a shout.

You can use electron to create a standalone shiny app, see https://chasemc.github.io/electricShine/, https://foretodata.com/how-to-make-a-standalone-desktop-application-with-shiny-and-electron-on-windows/, https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ARrbbviGvjc

Have you looked into electricShine?

There's electricShine, which uses electron.js. And, I want to say there's a new R wrapper around the rust crate tauri, but I'm blanking on the name.

You can look into electricShine. It's supposed to be able to create desktop executable shiny apps. I haven't used it myself and have heard that it can be dependent on the system configuration that you are attempting to run it on, but if it works, it could match what you are looking for.

For JavaScript, HTML, and CSS, Visual Studio Code is the best solution because it already runs on the Electron framework. So, try VSCode. Don't worry; your device won't be harmed. If its performance was unbearable, you can always put it aside. You can also try Atom. It is outdated, but it could be answer to your need.

you can still get atom from it github page: https://github.com/atom/atom/releases/tag/v1.60.0

I'm surprised that nobody here mentioned Atom [1]. IIUC, Atom was designed to be hackable like Emacs.

A successor to Atom is Pulsar [2].

atom (RIP buddy! Free) Atom is a hackable text editor for the 21st century, built on Electron, and based on everything we love about our favourite editors. We designed it to be deeply customizable, but still approachable using the default configuration

Hey everyone, I'm developing an open source text editor called Valence. I'm just getting started with its development and the next and main thing I need to implement is the editor itself. Now I know there are many different code editors like CodeMirror, Ace.js and Monaco but I want to start from scratch and build something like Atom had done. Currently I created a contenteditable div and also added a custom cursor. BTW I'm using React, TailwindCSS and TypeScript. Here is the component

These versions of Atom will stop working on February 2 [2023]. To keep using Atom, users will need to download a previous Atom version.

For Mac users - mv ~/.atom ~/atom_bak rm -fr /Applications/Atom.app download https://github.com/atom/atom/releases/tag/v1.60.0 Drag download to Applications folder - to install

And it doesn't match because https://github.com/atom/atom/releases/download/v1.63.1/atom-amd64.deb returns a 404 not found error, so of course it doesn't match.
