sudo apt install nodejs npm
Check that node and npm work:
node -v npm -v
Create some directory and install electron into to:
mkdir mynodejs cd mynodejs npm install --save-dev electron
This should create a sub folder node_modules containing electron:
C:\Whatever\mynodejs\node_modules\electron\dist\electron.exe
Set the full path to this executable in Lazarus Tools / Options / pas2js / Electron executable
Lazarus Electron Web Application
Install pas2jsdgn package. For more information see here
You get a new project type Electron Web Application, which is like a Web Browser Application, except this wizard creates three projects, the preload.lpi, the render.lpi and YourApp.lpi, and a project group.
After the options dialog it asks for the file name of the webapp program source filename (usually a *.lpr or *.pas). Choose some name, you can later rename it.
To run it you must compile all three projects to create the three needed js files. The project group window helps you to switch easily and compile all projects.
