Quickly create and share examples of Electron app behaviors or bugs.
Note
This repro was renamed from electron-quick-start to clarify its purpose as a repro template. If you're looking to boostrap a new Electron app, check out the Electron Forge docs instead to get started!
Creating a minimal reproduction (or "minimal repro") is essential when troubleshooting Electron apps. By stripping away everything except the code needed to demonstrate a specific behavior or bug, it becomes easier for others to understand, debug, and fix issues. This focused approach saves time and ensures that everyone involved is looking at exactly the same problem without distractions.
A basic Electron application contains:
package.json - Points to the app's main file and lists its details and dependencies.main.js - Starts the app and creates a browser window to render HTML. This is the app's main process.index.html - A web page to render. This is the app's renderer process.preload.js - A content script that runs before the renderer process loads.You can learn more about each of these components in depth within the Tutorial.
