Getting started with Electron, TypeScript, Vite, and Ditto

The guide provides a comprehensive tutorial on building a cross-platform desktop application using Electron, TypeScript, Vite, React, and Ditto, a peer-to-peer technology. By leveraging Electron's foundation on Chromium, developers can utilize familiar web technologies like HTML, CSS, and JavaScript, while also accessing native code and advanced networking capabilities. The tutorial emphasizes the integration of Ditto to enable peer-to-peer communication without a server, offering a seamless experience across Mac, Windows, Linux, and even Raspberry Pi. Readers are guided through setting up the development environment, installing necessary dependencies, and using Tailwind CSS for styling. The tutorial culminates in creating a simple to-do list application that demonstrates Ditto's React SDK capabilities, allowing data synchronization across devices both online and offline.
