Build Guide

Quick reference for building and running both versions of the timer app.

Quick Start

Install Dependencies

npm install

Run Desktop App (Development)

npm start

Package Browser Extension

npm run package:extension

Then load dist/extension in Chrome as an unpacked extension.

Build Desktop App (Production)

npm run build:desktop

Project Structure

  • src/ - Shared code used by both platforms
  • extension/ - Browser extension specific files (manifest, background script)
  • desktop/ - Electron desktop app files (main process, preload)
  • dist/ - Build output directory (created by build scripts)

Development Workflow

  1. Edit shared code in src/ for changes that affect both platforms
  2. Edit extension/background.js for extension-specific behavior
  3. Edit desktop/main.js for desktop-specific behavior (window management, etc.)

Notes

  • Both platforms share the same core logic (src/main.js)
  • localStorage works in both contexts
  • Audio files and assets are shared
  • Keyboard shortcuts work identically in both versions
