electron-ts

Hello World, Electron TypeScript.

Build Environment

• Build is via grunt
• Typescript target is ES6; can use the ES6 features of node.js 5.1.1.
• Tests are using mocha (https://mochajs.org/)

Setup

Install grunt-cli: npm install -g grunt-cli

For Windows Users: Install typescript: npm install -g typescript Then go to the Fruntfile.js file and remove the options key (path: grunt.initConfig => ts => options). The whole line should be removed.

Commands

• Compile: npm run build
• Run: npm start
• Test: npm test

Notes

You will see a warning like:

npm WARN deprecated lodash@0.9.2: lodash@<2.0.0 is no longer maintained. Upgrade to lodash@^3.0.0

During npm install; you can ignore that it's due to the stable version of grunt depending on an old library.
