I will build a windows desktop app with electron and react


About this gig
Most desktop app developers build bloated, slow software. I build lean, fast Electron apps that feel native because I've actually shipped one.
Launchpad is my own Electron app unifying 11 gaming platforms (Steam, Epic, Xbox, Battle.net, itch.io and more) into a single launcher with live playtime tracking, Discord Rich Presence, RAWG/IGDB metadata, and a Windows installer via electron-builder. See it at site-launchpad.netlify.app.
That's the level of work I bring to your project.
What I build:
- Windows desktop apps with Electron + React + Vite
- Clean UI with Tailwind CSS and Framer Motion
- Local storage and persistent app state
- System tray integration and background processes
- External API integrations (REST APIs, webhooks)
- Packaged as a proper Windows .exe installer
All deliveries include:
- Full source code via GitHub or ZIP
- Packaged Windows installer (.exe)
- Basic documentation on how to run and build the project
- Clean, commented code you can maintain yourself
To get started, just share:
- What your app needs to do
- Any design references or inspiration
- Whether you need any specific API integrations

FAQ
Can you build for Mac or Linux too?
My primary focus is Windows. Electron apps can run cross platform but I only guarantee and test on Windows. If you need Mac/Linux support, message me first.
Do I need to know how to code to maintain the app after delivery?
No, I'll deliver clean, documented source code and a ready to use installer. Basic maintenance like text changes is straightforward even without coding knowledge.
Can you add a backend or database to the app?
Yes, I can integrate Supabase for a cloud database or use local SQLite for offline storage. Message me to discuss your specific needs before ordering.
What if I need features beyond what's listed in my package?
Message me before ordering and I'll put together a custom offer for your exact requirements.
Will the app auto-update when I release new versions?
Auto-updater is included in the Premium package. It can be added to Standard as a paid extra.
