Electron is ram hungry. You should consider tauri github.com/tauri-apps/tauri
It uses edge view and is very light weight.
It will definitely suit your needs. Although watch out for some incompatibilities, it's still in beta.
Migrated to Tauri! Wrote a blog about it, check it out!

I'll try it when I got time :) Thanks
And please remove that tilt effect
Removed, you can try the master branch if you want to
Recently came across tauri. Definitely planning to use it soon. As compared to other UI libraries for rust, do you think tauri consumes more resources?
Definitely no. It consume less resources and its almost 1/50th of the storage space compared to electron for a hello world app. My only problem was its still in beta and I was stuck in places where I couldn't find any solution or libraries.. So i was forced back to electron.
Aah. I see. Thanks for the heads-up.
Impressive Justin!! Will try to contribute if I can....
Keep up the good work, you are an inspiration....
Thanks! Any PRs will be welcomed :) Also, please drop a star if you like to haha
As much as this drives me insane - the case of trying to fit Javascript and Electron everywhere - I see all the merit of your creation, that this is a very good portfolio piece and learning exercise for you and a very good use case for those interested in trying to learn the stack, so good work, Justin! Impressive considering your profile says you are junior from high school! With a piece of work like this, you are ready to be hired for frontend development work!
TYSM for your feedback :)
Just checked it.
First few things i noticed:
In terms of stability, I am wondering, is it possible to happen that some file gets corrupted or lost?
Thanks for your feedback, I'll try my best to improve it.
For the stability, I've never experienced nor got report about files getting corrupted.
I would say that the word "AWESOME" isn't expressive enough! Keep going!
Thanks haha
impressive work, just some quick feedback
Thanks for your feedback, if could, could you please list the shortcut keys and the features you want to add into? (you can open github issue/discussion if you want to).
I am on windows-7 I liked the graphics in the images but I cannot use it on my computer when I start it it does not open and the task manager shows that it's processes are running. Please help I want to use it.
Does your windows 7 on 32 bit? If your computer use 64 bit and the processes are running, try restart your computer and open it again, if you use 32 bit, actually Xplorer doesn't officially support it for now, but I can build it for you (Please note that it will crash everytime Xplorer release a new version that you have to ask the latest 32 bit binary installer from me, this is because Xplorer use
electron-updaterwhich will automatically fetches the latest update and if I enable this for 32 bit, the installer will go as bigger as twice, hence I decided to not offcially support it for now, but I will try my best to support 32 bit officially)Ah, totally forgot to drop a comment on this post 😅
Great job, @kimlimjustin !
I never realize that you're still JHS right now. This is amazing.
Keep up the good work! 🔥🔥🔥
TYSM, actually I went to Senior High School just this June haha, is there any place I forgot to update my bio or smth? (though I'm feel I'm still a JHS bcuz of the covid xD)
Man, your profile card just beside this post is still showing the junior high school 😄
Ehhh, don't realize it lol, dev.to setting UX is quite confusing haha, and I rarely use dev.to xd.
Cool app but I am a noob, can you tell me how you get the information of files and directories using typescript 🤔🤔😅
You can do this by using the node js
fsmodule, note that this only can be done the node processThanks and any resource for learning ts I didn't find one
Very impressive !!!! wow, gorgeous application.
I have one question; Does it support column view like mac file explorer does?
You can change layout by right clicking -> click on Layout -> select one of four default layouts. (Will add more in future release)
Thank you Justin
Wow, its very nice, Tried it! Keep up the great work!
Thanks!
This is amazing! Great work!
I like this, on several levels. The Gitpod integration is cool as well, and something that I want to look into more. I'm a huge Docker fan and will be taking some notes from this repo.
how old are u justin?
im indonesian too..
great work!
I'm on senior high school rn (SMA), 15 yo. Thanks!
Wow
Its great for a high school student!
This is phenomenal. I’m a fan of squeezing every drop out of web tech. Pure coding fun. You have a bright future!
Very impressive!!
Impressive work Justin really loving the UI. I'm curious to see how well it performs though cz Electron isn't the most efficient framework out there. Well done
Migrated to Tauri! Wrote a blog about it, check it out!
dev.to/kimlimjustin/xplorer-a-mode...
So coool
Impressive, nicely done. Looking forward to see what future plugins will bring!
Oh this is sick man!
I just started building a file explorer with Node.Js.
Great inspiration!!
Thanks!
It's amazing great work 👍 !
bro that last point is relatable af 😂
This looks awesome. Can't wait to test it out!
Thanks, any feedback will be appreciated :)
I think that the icons on the left are a bit too crammed, but everything else it's awesome (in my opinion)!
Will refactor it, thanks!
Completing this project must have been so rewarding, that's very cool. That's also plenty inspiring! And a fantastic thing for your resume
Thanks!
This is wonderful Justin, I am throughly impressed by this, thank you for this
Thanks!
This is very cool!
Thanks!
Inspiring post 🙂 for me 🤠
Thanks haha
Very very impressive. Congratulations for this job!
Thanks!
Finally something for Windows that is nice
Thanks haha, any feedback will be appreciated :)
This is amazing! My Windows was needing a better file explorer. That shit only supports one tab.
Now i can have a beautiful, clean and useful filexp..
Thanks haha
Amazing work! Justin
Thanks! Please try it out, any feedback will be appreciated :)
Wow you kill it, congrats man
Thanks!
This is an awesome job
Thanks!
This looks dope! Keep up the great work!
Thanks!
Superb job, Justin. Maybe it will become a standard file explorer for some Linux distributions in the future.
Thanks! Actually I was planning to create a distro of my own after the stable version (1.0.0) of Xplorer released xd.
Great job Justin! 🔥🔥🔥
Thanks
I'm bad at C/C++ xD
This point is common among new developers like the modern age teenagers and young adults. They prefer and like new programming languages like JS or Py or React like me.
Hahaha
Loving the modern UI just from the screenshots, would love to try it out on my Linux machine soon
TYSM, any feedback will be appreciated :)
Hi there, in your homepage，the link for electron is wrong
xplorer.vercel.app/
dev-to-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com/up...
Oh, thanks for your comment, I didn't realize it, will update it soon
Erm, really sorry but I think this is a bug caused by the Docusaurus (Xplorer docs is written on it) cuz I wrote the correct link and it's okay on development but the bug occured on production. I'll open an issue there.
Meanwhile, if you are interested on Electron, here's the link: electronjs.org/
Awesome. Which library did u use to build the dasho layout
Thanks, actually all of the layout was built using HTML and CSS, you can inspect those element by typing
Ctrl+Shift+ 'I' tho.Wow that's pretty nice!!!! I always wanted to do something like that.
Thanks!
Can you make it work like good old Total Commander?
softpedia.com/get/File-managers/To...
Magnificent.
Nice app. BTW which library do you use for file/folder tree? Thanks.
I use the node.js
fsmoduleI appreciate your work!
You may want to consider a branding name change since Xplorer and Xplorer2 have been in use for many years for a file explorer by zabkat.com/
Awesome man! I want to learn building apps from electron for freelance projects to earn some extra cash but don't have time for it! Will definitely install this! Great job man!
TYSM. You can try learn electron by contributing to Xplorer haha, if you got into problem, you can ask me :)
Thats Impressive!!
Woah!! Its amazing. I will definitely try out this.
Thanks! Any feedback will be appreciated :)
TYSM for the feedback :)
