Compatibility

The application is cross-platform and runs on Linux, Windows and Mac.

It currently has no backend and just uses JSONs to store and read data. So, no sync is supported, if you want to keep data updated through different platforms you have to use third-party synchronization applications.

Development

Environment

To download all the needed dependencies for the application to run, listed into the package.json file use the command: npm install angular

Build

Electron Packager is needed to build the project into executable binary.

sudo npm install electron-packager -g

After that simply run electron-packager . command from inside the project app to build for your platform.

Otherwise here the specific platform shortcuts for build commands (64bit architectures for Linux and MacOS, 32bit for Windows) that will prepare distributable folders into dist:

npm run package-linux

npm run package-mac

npm run package-win
