Awesome Electron-Forge Boilerplate

I created this boilerplate to start an Electron application using most popular tools:

• electron-forge as base project
• electron-store to be able to persist settings
• electron-log to be able to show and persist logs
• @lpfreelance/electron-bridge to be able to follow best security practices for Electron with easy!
• @timfish/webpack-asset-relocator-loader, fork of Vercel package to be able to include native_modules to the main process that works with Electron.
• Custom hook in the file forge.config.ts that run every time tha app is packaged and fix native_modules. (At this time it will install serialport)
• React as framework for the UI
• MUI for styling the UI

Moreover the webpack.(main|renderer).config.ts files have been modified to be able to support electron-bridge (see this)

Use this boilerplate

To use this boilerplate for your next project use the Github UI to "Use as template" or just fork the repo.
