SvelteKit + Electron template

This repo contains two configurations for setting up SvelteKit with Electron.

1. The main branch uses mainWindow.loadFile
2. The serve branch uses electron-serve

Both rely on prerender=true and ssr=true in the SvelteKit layout config.

The prerender=true option creates the HTML on build and ssr=true tells SvelteKit which page to load. Without the ssr option, SvelteKit will rely on location.pathname to know which route it is loading when pointed to an arbitrary HTML file. The file protocol based route does not work well with this logic so you need the route-information to be rendered server-side.
