I built an open source cross-platform desktop starter app

4 points by eibrahim ↗ HN
I built an app for personal marketing using electron and then it inspired me to build other apps, so I took what I learned and put together a desktop starter app and open sourced it.

It saves a lot of time trying to get things up and running. It also has built in automatic updates using github releases and CI/CD to auto release new versions.

It's bare bones intentionally - check it out at https://github.com/dotnetfactory/desktop-starter-app

That looks really cool! So the auto update feature updates client app for all users instantly (like Discord does on open)?
