npm installMake sure your system has Node.js and Git installed.
⚠ If you're using a release version from GitHub or any distribution:
Because OpenFrontApp is a new and unsigned application, Windows may display a security warning when launching the .exe for the first time.
This is normal and expected.
To proceed:
- Click "More info"
- Then click "Run anyway"
Once the app gains reputation or is digitally signed, this warning will no longer appear.
To run the app in development mode with live reload:
npm run startThis will open the app using Electron and load local resources. The console will print debug logs and load mods from your project directory.
To build the application for Windows:
npm run build:winOther available targets:
npm run build:mac– macOS.dmgnpm run build:linux– Linux.AppImage
Make sure your
assets/icon.ico(Windows) oricon.icns(macOS) are valid and exist before building.
Mods are JavaScript files placed in the mods/ folder. During the first launch, the app copies the default mods to:
%appdata%/openfrontapp/OpenFrontApp/mods
Only mods listed in active-mods.json will be activated on launch.
