  • electron-quick-start

    Clone to try a simple Electron app

  • We will first initialise an empty electron project that will look similar to an electron first app or electron quick starter repository

  • webpack

    A bundler for javascript and friends. Packs many modules into a few bundled assets. Code Splitting allows for loading parts of the application on demand. Through "loaders", modules can be CommonJs, AMD, ES6 modules, CSS, Images, JSON, Coffeescript, LESS, ... and your custom stuff.

  • Next we’ll set up Webpack to optimize our application. Webpack configuration consists of an array of entry points. Webpack processes each entry point by passing the file (and its dependencies) through a loader. Loaders are selected via rules, often with a loader per file extension. Finally, Webpack dumps the output to a specified location.

  • SurveyJS

    Open-Source JSON Form Builder to Create Dynamic Forms Right in Your App. With SurveyJS form UI libraries, you can build and style forms in a fully-integrated drag & drop form builder, render them in your JS app, and store form submission data in any backend, inc. PHP, ASP.NET Core, and Node.js.
