@kamranahmedse Can I try to work on this ?

from pennywise.

@akash-joshi sure, just trigger the focus in componentDidMount hook

from pennywise.

How do I deploy the built files ? I was just thinking of adding an autofocus tag to the input element.

The built should only be deployed by @kamranahmedse in my opinion @akash-joshi that way we keep the build done the same every time.

@The-Code-Monkey I meant locally. Since running using yarn start triggers the dev console to be focussed first.

oh if you go into electron.js in public and remove the if dev open console statement it wont open the dev console

from pennywise.

then restart the yarn start.

also if you make a pr that would be great. This is the first program I have seen do something like this and its really efficient actually quicker at rendering and calling api endpoints than my stripped down chrome is.
