Description

Build cross platform desktop apps with JavaScript, HTML, and CSS.

It's easier than you think.

If you can build a website, you can build a desktop app. Electron is a framework for creating native applications with web technologies like JavaScript, HTML, and CSS. It takes care of the hard parts so you can focus on the core of your application.

*: bump PORTREVISION for the textproc/libxml2 2.15 shared library change (#848)

`textproc/libxml2` 2.15 changed SONAME from `libxml2.so.2` to `libxml2.so.16` **and** removed ELF symbol versioning entirely — the new library defines no `LIBXML2_*` versions at all. Consumers built against the old library were never rebuilt, so they still record a dependency on `libxml2.so.2` plus version requirements nothing can satisfy, and fail at load time: ``` ld-elf.so.1: /usr/local/lib/libxml2.so.2: version LIBXML2_2.4.30 required by /usr/local/lib/libevdocument3.so.4 not defined ``` ### Scope `Tools/scripts/bump_revision.pl -f -l textproc/libxml2` — **436 Makefiles**: 323 revisions incremented, 113 gained a `PORTREVISION` line. The diff touches nothing but `PORTREVISION` lines (verified: `git diff -U0` shows no other changed line), and spot-checked ports still …

devel/electron41: restore the stock vendored packagejsons (#818)

## Summary Restores `files/packagejsons/{package.json,yarn.lock}` to the vendor files and drops the dependabot-generated `.yarn/install-state.gz`. **This repairs a currently broken port.** ## The bug `files/packagejsons/{package.json,yarn.lock}` must mirror the Electron source tarball's own files. The prefetch resolves the yarn offline cache from the vendored copies, but `pre-configure` runs `yarn install` inside `${WRKSRC}/electron`, whose `package.json` and `yarn.lock` come from the **source tarball**. Nothing in this port copies the vendored files over the source ones — FreeBSD's `Mk/Uses/npm.mk` does exactly that at extract time (lines 481-495, backing the originals up as `.bak`), and the corepack replacement used here never replicated it. …
