An experimentation to use the Solidworks C# API within Electron, using Edge.js for scripting C# within Node.js
The purpose of this project is for me to practice on my web development skills, driven by my work on the project Solidworks Submissions Form (a C# GUI to quickly grade student Solidworks submissions). Along the way, I hope to learn more about Electron, Edge.js (to run C# code within Node.js), and web development skill like HTML/JS/CSS (of which I only have a basic understanding).
This project will realistically do everything the Solidworks Submissions Form can, but with more complexity. However, building a GUI using web dev techniques will help me grow expand my skillset, and is something no one has done before which is exciting!
Hopefully others searching for Solidworks working with Electron will find this repo useful.
I have no idea what I'm doing, this is mostly me hacking around and seeing if I can get Solidworks to play nice with Electron at all. None of this code is backed by any "best practices", and I could very likely be taking the wrong approach to many things. Knowing this, I would very much appreciate any guidance from others, such as suggestions / questions / comments on this code.
