UiPath Tutorial - Deploy UiPath Apps as Desktop Client using Electron Framework
Hello there,
In this latest video on the #rpavanguard channel, we learn how to deploy a UiPath App as a Desktop client on an end user computer using the Electron Framework.
Over the past few weeks I published videos on UiPath Data Context. And in that video, I used an App deployed as a client to my laptop. Although this subject was on my mind, I thought this would be the logical time to release a video on this topic.
The video track covers the following:
1. 00:00 - Intro
2. 00:17 - Prologue
3. 00:59 - Electron A Brief Overview
4. 05:01 - Electron Setup Pre-Requisites
5. 13:22 - Publish New/Updated UiPath App
6. 18:59 - Install Electron
7. 24:40 - Configure the Distribution Package
8. 35:39 - Test Package with npm start
9. 38:43 - Ignoring Early Warnings - The Consequences
10. 40:54 - Create the Distribution Package with npm run dist
11.43:56 - Install/Uninstall Client App on User Machine
12.46:38 - Epilogue and One more thing
