Electron: Cross-platform Desktop application development library based on node.js and Chromium engine.

Electron is an open source library developed by Github for building cross-platform desktop applications with HTML, CSS and Javascript. Electron accomplishes this by combining Chromium and Node.js into a single runtime and apps can be packaged for Mac, Windows, and Linux.

$ cd electron-quick-start
# Install dependencies
$ npm install
# Run the app
