A minimal Electron application template maintained by the Electron team for creating and sharing minimal reproductions of app behaviors or bugs. It contains the smallest possible Electron app (main process, preload script, and renderer HTML) so issues can be demonstrated in isolation.

Use cases

• create a minimal repro for an Electron bug report
• share a small example demonstrating Electron app behavior
• debug an Electron issue in isolation
• test whether an Electron API behaves unexpectedly
• give maintainers a runnable reproduction of a problem

When to choose

• you need to file or debug an Electron issue with a minimal example
• you want to demonstrate an Electron behavior to others
• you need a tiny sandbox to experiment with Electron APIs

When to avoid

• you want to bootstrap a real new Electron app (use Electron Forge instead)
• you need a full-featured starter with build tooling and packaging
• you are not working with Electron at all
