If you do not want your app to open website links
|
||
|
|
<em>within</em> the app, you can use the <code>shell</code> module
|
||
|
|
to open them externally. When clicked, the links will open outside
|
||
|
|
of your app and in the user's default web browser.
|
||
|
|
</p>
|
||
|
|
<p>
|
||
|
|
When the demo button is clicked, the electron website will open in
|
||
|
|
your browser.

You may want to open all <code>http</code> and
|
||
|
|
<code>https</code> links outside of your app. To do this, query
|
||
|
|
the document and loop through each link and add a listener. This
|
||
|
|
app uses the code below which is located in
|
||
|
|
<code>assets/ex-links.js</code>.
