This template is used to build vite + electron projects.
NOTE: Main process is built with esbuild. After some modifications, it currently supports emitDecoratorMetadata.
In the past, I've been building desktop clients with vue + vue-cli-plugin-electron-builder, and they work very well. But as the project volume grows, webpack-based build patterns become slower and slower.
The advent of vite and esbuild greatly improved the development experience and made me feel lightning fast ⚡.
It took me a little time to extract this template and thank you for using it.
- Click the Use this template button (you must be logged in) or just clone this repo.
- In the project folder:
# install dependencies yarn # npm install # run in developer mode yarn dev # npm run dev # build yarn build # npm run build
In order to use with pnpm, you'll need to adjust your .npmrc to use any one the following approaches in order for your dependencies to be bundled correctly (ref: #6389):
node-linker=hoisted
public-hoist-pattern=*
shamefully-hoist=true
