mlshapiro commented 6 years ago

Goal

Release a portable version of scriptedforms that runs as a standalone application.

Requirements

the app should not require the system to have python installed.
- a minimal python and set of python dependencies must be included in the deployment
must be able to load and render scriptedforms md files
user should be able to load md file at runtime
support latest windows, mac, linux deployments.
simple deploy script to get python dependencies for each system and build application

Notes

electron apps tend to get large quickly. Try to minimize the size of the application.
