Before we get started, let's cover in brief what you'll be seeing throughout this course or more specifically,
how I'll be writing and running the electron project in the course lessons.
First up, the project code I'll be using for this.
I've created a very simple boilerplate project based on Electron Jaysus own QuickStart project.
The main difference being a reduction in code comments to better follow along on video and a few code
changes in preparation for upcoming changes in the electron API will cover getting this project code
set up in the next section of the course.
However, then to edit project code, I'll be using the atom Ed and Ed that happens to be built using
electron any editor will do and no extensions or configuration is required, although ensuring basic
JavaScript and HTML syntax highlighting will be useful.
I've linked to the atom download page in the lesson resources to run the project code.
Any command line tool will do.
I'll be using the hyper terminal again, both using electron, but the native Makk terminal or Windows
Command prompt is perfectly suitable.
The only prerequisite here being to have the latest version of no installed.
You can find the link to the node dodges download page in the lessened resources.
I'd also encourage you to check each license linked resources throughout the course as you'll find any
valuable references to that lesson there.
So with that said, and knowing what to expect in the next section of the course, we'll get started
installing electron, getting our project code set up and running that boilerplate project for the first
time.
