as part of my motivation to start learning how to use electron i’ve been digging around their website to see what is possible with the platform and i’ve found some great stuff. i’ve got seven of these planned and i’m hoping you will check out the quickfire soapbox made wistia videos i made, i’ve embedded episode three below. ..

EPISODE THREE

what is electron and what is ‘electron on steemit?’

it’s a cool platform that allows someone (hopefully) non coder like me to hack together something (and get some help) to build our some applications that have been floating around my brain for far too long and need to come to life. i’m also sharing my journeys with the platform alongside these quick fire shows highlighting some tools that have been built with the platform. mainly to inspire me to keep going when things look really complicated but also so you can discover some neat tools! :)

learning and tutorials i’ve found for electron

https://www.udemy.com/electron-react-tutorial - 8 hr tutorial - £15
https://www.udemy.com/master-electron - 5.5 tutorial - £15

i might be tempted to get them both and see if their is any overlap in the teaching, i think i need to mockup what i want to achieve first and then realise that over time but learning the fundamentals, i’m sure their are many blocks to learn but i’ll do my best to share the journey as i go - also finding that a lot of the open source programs i find from GitHub are open source so i can duplicate a lot of learning from the codebases there as well - i could do with a course about GitHub. i think i’m going to do that first.

https://www.udemy.com/git-basic-concept-fundamentals-github - £15
https://www.udemy.com/github-ultimate - £15 - 6hrs (other is 12.5!)
