is this going to be released for the Windows platform? @sindresorhus you're a programming god and you rock, thanks for all the awesome work you do and share with the rest of us.

Applescript editor opens after each task and then Gulp-app crashes.

Will probably need a server for this as it requires explicit response codes.

I have no global installed gulp, but in the nvm.
It'd be nice that an user can select which node environment to be used.

Created as requested.

1. started gulp-app
2. opened folder.
3. checked menu / watched output.
4. After bringing the window into focus a couple more times it seemed to get it.

After found it listed multiples of my build task. No additional console logs to associate with behavior.

Like mentioned elsewhere i'd suggest ditching this method. Its cool... but doesn't work well. Doesn't stay locked etc.

The blocker for Linux support is being able to get the current folder in the file manager, so it can know where to look for a gulpfile.

In Follow Finder setting, gulp-app can not track if user move to another directory.

From @addyosmani

I think it would make sense to allow the user to choose the folder they would like to target for use with the app (e.g only allow the folder to be selected if a gulpfile is present). I usually have multiple windows open during development and had to cycle back closing them to ensure there wasn't more than one with a gulpfile in there.

It should only switch to a new project if it has a gulpfile.

Currently it switches to any active folder and shows "No gulpfile found".

Hi,

it always shows no gulpfile found on my macbook.
(I tried even kill totalfinder but still same)
Do you need any further informations?

Gulp sub task names are truncated

How about like that? The screenshot below is just a mockup.

Inspired by #10 and #12 (check out the screenshot), here's a braindump on how I imagine the app could work.

Feedback wanted.

Follow Finder is only visible on OSX/Win. It's checked by default and will follow the current folder in Finder/Explorer.

Question: Should Follow Finder add projects to Recent Projects?
Question2: Better name than Follow Finder?

You can also manually select a project with Open project. When opened it will be added to Recent projects. When a project is selected with either of these methods, Follow Finder will be unchecked.

Drag/drop on the tray icon to set the active project would also be nice.

What do you think? Anything unclear?

I am getting this error: Couldn't find package.json and on taskbar No gulpfile found, any idea? or what do I need to do?

What should the hotkey be?

when I open the app:

Uncaught Exception:

I think it's better to use locally installed electron-packager instead of globally installed electron-packager. However, I have no idea how to use $npm_package_productName and to set the icon of Electron app. --icon=./[email protected] , and .ico, .icns did not work. Could you please tell me how to build it?

In case they forgot.

I kinda like it, but not sure if it's a good idea or not.

The blocker for Windows support is being able to get the current folder in Explorer, so it can know where to look for a gulpfile. I'm not sure how to find that on Windows.

readme.md ##dev refers to "atom-shell" (now called "electron")

It seems better to use BrowserWindow and html5 Notification instead of displayNotification. It solve #23 and looks better because it shows icon. also for window, linux support.

@addyosmani requested an option to lock it to the current folder so it won't switch if you go to another folder with a gulpfile.
