I have looked at the documentation for Electron regarding the 'frameless-window', but I just can't seem to make a button of my own work to close the application...
Any help would be appreciated! Thanks!
const electron = require('electron');
const url = require('url');
const path = require('path');
const {app, BrowserWindow} = electron;
let mainWindow;
// Listen for app to be ready
app.on('ready', function() {
// create new window
mainWindow = new BrowserWindow({width: 800, height: 600, frame: false});
// Load html into window
mainWindow.loadURL(url.format({
pathname:path.join(__dirname,'main.html'),
protocol: 'file:',
slashes: true
}));
const closeApp = document.getElementById('closeApp');
closeApp.addEventListener('click', () => {
app.quit();
});

In your renderer process (javascript loaded from main.html) you should be able to load Electron and Node modules.
const {ipcRenderer} = require('electron');
const closeApp = document.getElementById('closeApp');
closeApp.addEventListener('click', () => {
ipcRenderer.send('close-me')
});
In main.js the script you posted
const {ipcMain} = require('electron')
ipcMain.on('close-me', (evt, arg) => {
app.quit()
})
