Dillinger as desktop app

Open shumtravi opened this issue 10 years ago • 6 comments

It is possible to pack Dillinger as desktop app with nw.js or something like that? I very like that MD editor, but i prefer desktop app with synchronization if it possible.

I believe @pmuellr is working on something

Didn't get very far, I don't think - was a while ago - https://github.com/pmuellr/dillinger-the-app

At this point, I'd prolly look into using https://www.npmjs.com/package/electron-packager as the way to pull Electron in.

It's pretty trivial to just load http://dillinger.io in an Electron frame (literally just replace 'file://' + __dirname + '/index.html' in the electron quick start by 'http://dillinger.io'. It looks great as a desktop app!

It'd be nice to load the resources locally instead of over the web, but if you're looking for a quick fix, that's about as easy as it gets.

@joemccann I know this was 7 years ago, but did anything come of this? I'm very interested in it
