Cross-platform Desktop Application Development: Electron, Node, NW.js, and React

Введение в книгу : Building and maintaining cross-platform desktop applications with native languages isn't a trivial task. Since it's hard to simulate on a foreign platform, packaging and distribution can be quite platform-specific and testing cross-platform apps is pretty complicated. In such scenarios, web technologies such as HTML5 and JavaScript can be your lifesaver. The goal of this book is to show how to develop desktop apps with popular web frameworks. This approach not only focuses on painless cross-platform distribution, but also is considerably less time/ resource consuming and much more business efficient approach. Build different cross-platform HTML5 desktop applications right from planning, designing, and deployment to enhancement, testing, and delivery Forget the pain of cross-platform compatibility and build efficient apps that can be easily deployed on different platforms. Build simple to advanced HTML5 desktop apps, by integrating them with other popular frameworks and libraries such as Electron, Node.JS, Nw.js, React, Redux, and TypeScript
