We have a lot of feedback from people trying to use electronJS based applications on [resin.io](http://resin.io). Wanted to share a boilerplate/template version of one such app, made by [curcuz](https://github.com/curcuz), in case anyone needs some ideas or starting point: [https://github.com/resin-io/resin-electronjs](https://github.com/resin-io/resin-electronjs)

Let us know if you have tried it, and have any feedback!

(I know I’ll hack on it to enable it with a small [PiTFT screen](https://www.adafruit.com/products/1983) for tiny kiosks 🙂

Here’s a freshly released blogpost with a lot of details on how to use `resin-electronjs` for a bunch of different scenarios:

> **[ElectronJS with Raspberry Pi Made Easy As Pie](https://resin.io/blog/electronjs-the-ultimate-guide/)**
>
> Everything you wanted to know about using ElectronJS to quickly deploy a device displaying web pages, play video, or more complex, interactive displays.

We tried to cover a lot of things, so the blogpost might be a bit on the long side, but well, that’s an ultimate guide for you. 😛 Would be curious what will you build!
