Example code using Bytenode + Bytenode Webpack Plugin to compile both the render and main processes in an Electron app.

At the command line:

git clone https://github.com/spaceagetv/electron-bytenode-example.git
cd electron-bytenode-example
npm install
npm start

This example uses Herbert Treis Neto's Bytenode Webpack Plugin along with Webpack and Electron Forge to bundle and package the application.

Electron gets pointed at small "loader" files which bundle Bytenode in order to load the binary .jsc files containing the original application code.

NOTE! You must enable nodeIntegration in your BrowserWindow webPreferences for Bytenode to work in the rendering process. Alternately, you could include your rendering code using a preload script, where Node will be available automatically.
