YouTube Stats App

Build a native desktop app that will pull YouTube channel info from an API with Angular 9 and Electron 8 (Typescript + SASS + Hot Reload) for creating Desktop applications.

Release

Runs with:

• Angular v9.1.4
• Electron v8.2.5
• Electron Builder v22.6.0

Getting Started

Clone this repository locally :

git clone 

Install dependencies with npm :

npm install

There is an issue with yarn and node_modules when the application is built by the packager. Please use npm as dependencies manager.

If you want to generate Angular components with Angular-cli , you MUST install @angular/cli in npm global context. Please follow Angular-cli documentation if you had installed a previous version of angular-cli.

npm install -g @angular/cli

To build for development

• in a terminal window -> npm start

Voila! You can use your Angular + Electron app in a local development environment with hot reload !

The application code is managed by main.ts. In this sample, the app runs with a simple Angular App (http://localhost:4200) and an Electron window. The Angular component contains an example of Electron and NodeJS native lib import. You can disable "Developer Tools" by commenting win.webContents.openDevTools(); in main.ts.
