Angular Electron Seed

This seed combines the technologies of Angular (4+) with Electron to create a robust development stack for creating Desktop applications. Leveraging the stock AngularCLI build process, we are able to maintain webpack and stock tooling with minimal tweaking.

Getting Started

Command	Description
`npm i`	Install the required dependencies
`npm run start`	Builds the project and opens your app in Electron
`npm run start.watch`	Builds the project and watches for file changes with Angular CLI
`npm run watch`	Runs the custom tooling and syncs the live-sync with the AngularCLI watch task
`npm run bundle.mac`	Bundles your MacOS app into the bundles directory
`npm run bundle.windows`	Bundles your Windows app into the bundles directory
`npm run bundle.linux`	Bundles your Linux app into the bundles directory

Features

IPC Protocol - Send messages between Electron and Angular (plays beep when clicking Getting Started)
