Quick and dirty demo of a cross platform native app using electron to provide a html/css/javascript client with a python backend.

happens whenever i run any of the gulp commands

promising project

This is a promising little project, would be nice to update it and perhaps switch to the latest gulp 4 and perhaps electron-forge for the electron side of things.

Pity I don't understand the gulp stuff - looks like some interesting web serving and piping going on - not sure if the 'wiring' can be replicated with pure js - or something else?

For my use case, ideally it would be nice to be able to run several servers (minio, redis, flask) and have electron talk to flask. Then shut down the servers gracefully on electron exit.

button event not working on built app

Hey, great demo, but when I package the app the button event/callback no longer works. Any ideas? Thanks!

update: seems to be cos api is not being served when packaged.
