Vite + Electron with esbuild, so fast! ⚡
This template is used to build vite + electron projects. Build with Doubleshot, crazy fast!
🎉 Doubleshot is a whole new set of tools to help you quickly build and start a node backend or electron main process.
This template is based on a small framework einf that I wrote myself, which may not be complete, if you want to apply to production, you can use the templates with integrated nest.js:
🔨 vite-plugin-doubleshot to run/build electron main process.
😎 Controllers/Services ipc communication, powered by Typescript decorators.
⚡ Rendering process is powered by Vite.
⏩ Quick start and build, powered by tsup and electron-builder integrated in @doubleshot/builder
In the past, I've been building desktop clients with vue + vue-cli-plugin-electron-builder, and they work very well. But as the project volume grows, webpack-based build patterns become slower and slower.
The advent of vite and esbuild greatly improved the development experience and made me feel lightning fast ⚡.
It took me a little time to extract this template and thank you for using it.
