Electron from Scratch: Build Desktop Applications with JavaScript: Create 3 useful desktop applications with web technologies using Electron

Be ready to get hands-on in this interactive project-based course designed to help you build and package cross-platform desktop applications using Electron. If you didn’t already know, many popular apps such as VS Code, Slack, and Skype are built on Electron! Throughout this course, you’ll be building 3 apps - • ImageShrink - An app to optimize images for websites • SystTop – A real-time CPU monitor with notifications and system tray • BugLogger – A CRUD app to track logs, which uses React and the MongoDB Atlas cloud database In the first section of this course, you will start with an introduction to Electron and how it works. As you progress, you will start creating your first app- ImageShrink. You will also learn how to create menus with custom items. The next section will take you through the steps to create the interface, log files, and IPC communication. In addition to this, you will go on to build a menu template. In later sections, you’ll get up to speed with working through 2 more applications, SystTop and BugLogger. The course will also help you focus on how to work with Interval/Dynamic System Stats. By the end of this course, you will be able to build desktop apps with Electron and even establish communication between processes with IPCMain and IPCRenderer.
