Electron

Make the web app as desktop app

Build a desktop app with JavaScript, HTML, and CSS

Electron official website

This app is a desktop app, for that we need a wrapper for the web app in order to make it desktop. So, we decided to code the app with JavaScript and React and wrap it with the Electron framework.

Send event to the main process

Our app is JavaScript-based with the React library for the logic with the UI. React is implemented for websites, but our app needs to communicate with the system to install some software. Therefore, we use event emitter of the Electron, this one help us get out from "web" into "system".
