TypoVibe is a minimalistic Text editor. It's not much but it's something.

My approach is a little complicated and for this version probably too much but I have big plans for the future so I went with this.

The main process is basically just a simple electron app, starting the application with the window and sets the necessary attributes, such as the application icon or the window title.

The renderer process is started when the main process has finished setting up everything about the window.

There's an internal server running with which the frontend (i.e. the renderer process) is communicating. I went with this approach so other contributers can easily access the same interface, no matter how they do it. Using the electron IPC workflow, a few issues would arise in which case the whole project would have to be rewritten. The default port for the internal server is 13395 (can be changed in the settings.json).

The internal server writes and reads to and from the settings.json/session.json
