Run watch:main (usually once since you rarely change anything in Electron app) and watch:renderer.
Each command creates separate webpack instance which will watch referenced files for changes and will recompile app.
App can be run using start script. After every recompile by watch:renderer, app can be refreshed using Ctrl + R, however watch:main requires need a restart.
Ctrl + Shift + I can be used to launch Chrome inspector once the app is running.
