Usage

Compatibility Note: Some templates require a higher Node.js version to work, please upgrade if your package manager warns about it.

With npm:

$ npm create @quick-start/electron

With Yarn:

$ yarn create @quick-start/electron

With pnpm:

$ pnpm create @quick-start/electron

Then follow the prompts!

You can also directly specify the project name and the template you want to use via additional command line options. For example, to scaffold an Electron + Vue project, run:

npm create @quick-start/electron my-app --template vue

# npm 7+, extra double-dash is needed:
npm create @quick-start/electron my-app -- --template vue

# yarn
yarn create @quick-start/electron my-app --template vue

# pnpm
pnpm create @quick-start/electron my-app --template vue
