electron-splashscreen-for-angular

electron-splashscreen

Simple splashscreen for Electron applications.

Ideally, your application loads instantaneously. However, some applications are larger and/or may be running on a slower machine, causing the load to take longer. If the application is taking a bit to load, electron-splashscreen will appear so the user knows the application is loading, but can't interact with a partially loaded application.

electron-splashscreen is simple to incorperate, while allowing you the freedom to customize with any look, feel, and functionality.

No external dependencies.

Install

npm install @trodi/electron-splashscreen
