The XAYA wallet uses Angular and Electron to build the wallet.

Clone this repository locally:

git clone https://github.com/xaya/xaya_electron.git

Install dependencies with npm :

npm install

There is an issue with yarn and node_modules that are only used in Electron on the backend when the application is built by the packager. Please use npm as the dependencies manager.

npm install -g @angular/cli

• In a terminal window -> npm start

• Using local variables: npm start or cross-env ENV=local npm start
• Using development variables: cross-env ENV=dev npm start
• Using production variables: cross-env ENV=prod npm start

Place the daemon into the "daemon" folder before running or building. The daemon parameters are mostly hardcoded, although advanced users can still create *.conf file manually.

Webpack is configured inside angular-cli.json at a high-level or inside ngw.config.ts for low-level injections. Do not use 'ng eject', as this will break angular-cli. Note that 'ngw' is used in package.json for that purpose instead of 'ng'.

It's basically built on top of an Angular-Electron boilerplate. You can develop the GUI as a simple Angular application inside the 'app' folder. The daemon communication is done via 'global.service.ts'. It's based on the bitcoin-core node, which you simply expand with new functions, as shown in 'global.service.ts'. The main entry point is src/main.ts, if you want to alter anything related to the Electron window.
