applications with web technologies. It combines Google Chrome's
content module with Node.js, letting users use their web development
skill set to build applications that run natively on all major platforms.

Electron in Action guides the reader, step-by-step, as they learn to
build desktop applications that run on Windows, OSX, and Linux. By
the end, readers will be ready to build their own professional desktop
applications using the web tools and technologies they already know.
