How to create a self contained minimal app?

[cancandan]

How can one package all dependencies like nvim, electron and have a single executable app?

[rhysd]

1. Create new electron app repository
2. npm install neovim-component
3. Write minimal app referring example/minimal
4. Package the app. Document: https://github.com/electron/electron/blob/master/docs/tutorial/application-packaging.md

electron-packager or electron-builder is greatly helpful for 4.

Thanks but one also needs to include nvim executable to the electron package i think

[rhysd]

Please add nvim to somewhere in your repository and set an absolute path to the nvim at nvim-cmd property in <neovim-editor> component.
